FH and I adopted a dog yesterday! Her name is Sabrina - she's 4 years old. We are very excited. She's still getting used to being in her new home. We think she was abused because she cowers at certain movements and for some reason she is afraid of the camera and it's flash, so we can't take many pictures, but the link below is a picture of her. One more thing...she is deaf! But she is so loving!
awwwww she is so adorable!! congrats on your newest addition!!!!

You're welcome! I'm working with a deaf dog now at the shelter where I volunteer. It really teaches you how to speak 'dog' language, since they read so much more by gestures anyway!
