Writing in about my sweet Autumn girl. We adopted Autumn (fka Pamela) nearly two years ago. She’s the sixth senior pup we’ve adopted.
When I brought her home, it became obvious she was not used to being cherished in her previous home. She was terrified, on edge and cowered at every interaction. Within a couple weeks, she warmed up to me and we have been inseparable. She’s taken trips with us to Tahoe, sleeps next to me on my pillow every night and loves to play chase.
Autumn is my second soulmate dog. My first being a boy named Lucky who we lost in 2019. I never thought I would love another dog like I loved Lucky, but here I am. Autumn is so loved that my daughter’s middle name is in her namesake.
I am so grateful for having the chance to have this beautiful girl in my life. I hope that all Autumn knows, and remembers, is the love from our home.
Thank you, Muttville.
