Gotcha Date:
September 26th 2011

Birthday:
September 3rd 2001

Likes:
Kenny likes to cuddle with her people, and loves a nice soft bed. She loves to nibble our fingers and will sometimes give us love bites!

Pet-Peeves:
Kenny doesn't like thunder storms, although we have noticed that she is less frightened of them now, than when she first came to us. We cuddle with her and reassure her she is safe, and give her treats to help her get over some of her fear.

Favorite Toy:
Sadly, she doesn't show much interest in toys, but we will keep giving them to her and encouraging her.

Favorite Food:
Kenny LOVES chicken! Luckily she gets a fresh human-grade diet with mostly meat. That is supplemented with a specially formulated powder made for dogs with a meat diet. Plus she gets yougurt, cottage cheese, trout, salmon, sardines, and beef liver.

Favorite Walk:
Kenny adores going for her nightly walk around the neighborhood with her dad.

Best Tricks:
Dancing and spinning when it's dinner time, barking when her dad disappears into the basement, barking at the mail carrier, and sitting still when it's time to have some bows put into her fur.

Arrival Story:
Kenny came home with us at the end of September 2011. She is a rescue Sheltie that was found in the woods near a highway. We adopted her from the Sheltie Shack Rescue of Blue Rapids, Kansas. When she was originally found by some good Samaritans, she had been in the woods for several days and her fur was a mess. They shaved her fur to help get the ticks, sticks, and other mess out. After only about 5 months, her fur grew back in just fine, and she has a beautiful coat typical of a black and white tri Sheltie. Kenny is about 10 years old, the vet estimates.

The first fireflies

On our night walk tonight with my dad and my fursib Dooli we saw the first fireflies of the summer. I had forgotten them, and when I saw them again, they reminded me of fairies. Dooli was trying to chase them. He tries to chase everything. I just wanted to watch them. So pretty.

 

A cool rainy night

It's summer now, but unlike last year, it's been much cooler than last year. We've even seen Mr. Fox all ready! We have had nice cool temperatures in the 70's with cool breezes. So nice. Tonight we had some rain. I went out to my wonderful porch with my mom and we listened to the rain. I smelled the nice cool air. Our roses have all ready flushed out out. It rained a LOT in May, so they bloomed early. But we had some day high winds and lots of petals fell. After that mom cut back the roses, hard, cuz they were wild and we could hardly see over the rails on the porch! We have our fountain out too now, and mom potted up some shade plants so we have some interesting foliage to look at when we go out there. Our window box looks really good with lime green, dusky purple with a tinge of orange daisies, bright yellow and orange marigolds, and pink impaitients. We are the only ones on the block that have a window box. And today my mom made me some new red and white bows for my fur. I've been showing them off today.

 

Snow Storm!

Crikey!! Just when mom was starting to think about mucking the rose beds out because they have buds on them, we got this horrendous snow storm. We got 7 inches of snow in one hour, and over the 48 hour period, our town averaged 4 inches of snow per hour, with a total of about 12 for our area. All the schools, and most of the businesses were closed. The highways were covered in snow and of course there were some fender benders. Dad stayed home cuz his shop is far away and the roads were either closed, or not passable. That's a LOT of snow. Some areas lost power, but not us. We were o.kay. Dad made the porch, side, and back yards safe for us pups by shoveling a path for us, which is really nice. Now we don't have to get all wet to go out and do our business. Even the birds got a cleared out spot so they wouldn't fall in the snow while trying to get their food. Today it's a bright sunny day out, but the snow isn't melting too much. It will likely stay on the ground for awhile. I like playing in it and eating it too. It's exciting, but I don't want any more snow. This is enough! xoxo
