Dog Watching

One of Tara’s favorite spots is the windowsill in the living room.  It’s a large bow window that overlooks the front yard and there is plenty of bird activity to keep her entertained.  She is usually napping, but somehow she senses when a neighbor walks by with their dog and then she’s all eyes & ears.  Tara was rescued from an animal shelter and I always wonder what her life was like before we adopted her.  She was brought to the shelter after being found walking the city streets one cold January.   Did she encounter dogs in her travels?  How did she find food and shelter?  Did she run away from a loving home?  She was several years old, but only 4 pounds that March day when my dad and I met her.  Now she is a princess who will never have to fear the cold or lack of food again.  Napping on the windowsill in the sun and sitting on the couch and watching TV are her favorite pasttimes…lucky girl!
