Callie

We are pleased to introduce the newest member of the Riggall Clan – Callie, a black lab puppy was adopted into our family this afternoon. Callie will fit right in; she’s an adorable puppy who likes to cuddle and play, but isn’t too rambunctious and doesn’t bark too much, either – a perfect mix for us.

Callie comes from a shelter in South Carolina (a southern girl like Mary!) and was shipped up for us yesterday with a group of other dogs to a rescue in the area. We saw Callie on the internet first, asked to have her brought up and then we, along with a dozen other families, all went to the rescue to pick up our dogs yesterday afternoon. These puppies were surely going to be euthanized had they not been saved; the shelter is running out of room and many of the dogs in the outside kennels will have to be put down now that it is getting cold outside.


Callie is happily cuddled up on Mary’s lap, already enjoying her new home. Photos are below.


Jaron is indeed hugging her, not choking her..

Pretty girl!


Very tired!

Why is this boy hugging me?
