My baby came home for the first time on November 11, 2009 at 8 weeks old. She was just a tiny little thing, but has already grown to about 25 pounds. I can't believe it's already been over a year since she's been home: I actually had to double check the date, because it feels like our time together has been so short.

I have another dog, Lady- a German Shepherd, and if the weather permits, both stay outdoors. I'm in California so Mango likes to be outside at night, chasing all the bees and squirrels and herding Lady around. She usually comes in during the day to escape the heat, and is definitely curled up in a ball on my bed in rainy weather.

She's spoiled rotten, and probably eats more table scraps than is good for her, but it's impossible to resist when she looks at you with her big brown eyes. 

That's all for now I suppose... she's scratching at the door so time to let her in for the night!
