When Jason and I first moved in 2 years ago we talked about adopting a dog. At the time all we had was my cat Ryku. He had a beagle before he had passed and I had a Rottweiler, we both agreed we wanted to get a boxer.
Amusingly that's not how things work out, Jason's mom sent us a Facebook post about a dog from Kentucky that was in the local shelter. So we went to go see her and we knew it was a done deal the second she climbed into Jason's lap and started kissing his face.
Now the shelter was a little bit worried because of the breed and wanted to make sure that we knew what we were getting ourselves into. She is an Australian Cattle Dog. So we had them bring her to our house for a home visit and introduced her to the cat. everything went perfect.
Sady, two weeks after we got got her, Ryku passed away, so we got her at the right time I think.
