Been a long time coming...UPDATE!

Rachel Ray sends her very best to everyone that has kept up with her blog ;) Rachel had a very frightening time last night as nasty thunderstorms and lightning rattle the house last night. Rachel doesn't really like the thunder and it makes her nervous at times. Although, once we gave her permission to hop on the bed she curled right up to us and laid with her head on my chest and didn't move for the rest of the night. I think she just wanted to know that someone was there to protect her.....that's really all these rescue dogs want.....some love and a little bit of attention.

We also need to clear up some confusion as to Rachel Rays age. The first shelter that had Rachel estimated that she was 7 years old. It turns out that the last two vets that we took her to for shots stated that there was NO WAY that she was older than 5 years in their opinion, maybe even slightly younger. I know that this is a question that we get constantly about Rachel Ray and Jasper so we wanted to clear that up once and for all.

Rachel is doing very well and actually comes when you call her even when she is out in the yard with no leash. This has taken some training as she is a very quick and evergetic dog. She is really looking forward to finding a forever home!!!! She want to point butterflies and honebees in someone else's yard ! :)
