She is about a year old and came from lab rescue (we had worked with them to get a dog a few years ago but he was older and only lived 8 months).

she is a little more timid than him and doesn't play quite as rough but they seem to like each other.

i know there are a lot of single doggies out there that are very happy, but i do like them to have at least one doggy family member.
they look very happy. and a little worn out.
