Would you like to say hello to the newest member of our household....


Millie

We brought Millie home on Monday night, so sorry about the quality of the photos.  Millie is around 4 1/2 (we were told 6) and is a beagle. She was originally brought into the shelter last August.  One of the volunteers took her home, but her dog didn't take to Millie and so she was brought back to the shelter.

They were telling us at the shelter that beagles are often at the shelter especially in hunting season, as hunters bring the dogs up to hunt and then dump them which is just awful.

I will post more photos as the days go by in the daylight.  She is a smaller version of Molly; hopefully minus the allergies.

She's lovely Gill. How awful that the dogs are just dumped , and how wonderful that there are people like you to give them a loving home.Fingers crossed for no allergies!

Amanda said...

She is so cute! A's best friend has a beagle who had puppies a few months ago. She got to play with them and hold them before their eyes even opened. Her friend got to keep one and A loves to go over and play with both of them. Beagles are so sweet. Congrats!

Congratulations. I hope she has a smooth transition into your home. I think it is wonderful you are taking a rescue dog again. All rescue dogs come with a little bit of baggage, but she looks gorgeous. Good luck xx

Awww, congrats on your new baby. What a lucky girl she is to have a home where she will be loved like she should be

Once you've had a dog a home seems so empty without one. We've had 5 dogs over the past 17yrs (still have two of them right now) and all but one came from a rescue society. They've all been great with different personalities. Hope you and Millie have a great life together. That pooch is some lucky, she's hit the gravy train at your house.

She's lovely! I would love a beagle and hadn't thought of a rescue one. Puppies are hard to come by here but I'll start investigating.....

Cheapchick said...

She is adorable! So glad you have made a new home for her.

Connie said...

She's adorable. I keep going back to look at her pics. I think Queen Millie should be her title, as she looks very regal up on her throne.
