She’s rough and tough from living on the street, but she’s never chewed a shoe. She will destroy any toy in minutes, though. If it has a squeaker, it is immediately removed and destroyed. Any stuffing is pulled our next. Who knew so much stuffing could fit in those toys?! Then she shreds what remains. 🤦🏽‍♀️

It didn’t take long to figure out that she’s just as happy to shred packing boxes and paper when we give them to her. She just shreds and tosses the shredding aside, never tries to eat them. Now if I could get her to deposit the remains in the recycling, that would be nice.

She must give any package that arrives a thorough sniffing before it’s opened, then waits patiently to see if she will get the box. Chewy delivers every third month and she meets Kevin the delivery man before he can even get out of the truck!

We get plenty of exercise, fresh air and sunshine on our regular patrols around the yard. I had a total right knee replacement in August and my surgeon has just cleared me to resume all activities, no restrictions. When we can get a few sunny days to dry the trails, we’ll be hiking up the mountain and back soon. Haven’t been able to do that since last May after 3 pretty serious falls, so my husband and our daughter will hike a ways with her occasionally, but not to the top. Soon, baby girl, soon.
