greg1229 Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Some of you may know me from all the fosters I've had through the Magic Foster House. Well a few weeks ago I added my 3rd family member. I've posted a few pics of her in Everything Else and Cute adn Funny, but thought a real introduction was in order. A quick note on how she came to me. I foster for a group here in Phoenix and when i went to the kennel to pick up a new foster there was this little blue brindle girl, just under two years old. I fell for her then and there and told the kennel folks when she was going to retire i had a home for her. Thinking i had about a year at least. Well two days later her owner sent me an email saying instead of running her in Tijuana if I still had a home she was mine. So what was going to be a year turned out to be a month. Her race name was Blue Sea..17 races.. She is now know as Ellie B. She is getting over a neck rash and a bout of hookworm but is still alittle firecracker. Loves to make confetti.. Someday I am going to go outside and she will have pooped a copy of War and Peace at this rate.. So those who have not met my little girl, I give you Ellie B.

My "Sunday go to meeting" sneakers get put on the shelf in the closet so when the alarm goes off at 2am for work I don't have to go on a quest to find a matching pair.
