Our Mina

Much has happened since my last post here. While our roof was being removed, the cable that brings telephone and internet to us was also removed. Now it has been repaired and I can again report what has been going on. One thing that occurred was the one year anniversary of our dog Mina coming to live with us. We adopted her through the German Shorthaired Pointer rescue in our area. She was sweet and lively right from the start. She had no interest in listening to us at all. Our understanding is that she came from a home where she was loved, but not given much direction. When her elderly owner moved, Mina stayed with relatives that could not let her run. GSP dogs are meant to run. For the first two weeks that she lived with us, all that Mina did was run. We were happy enough to let her use up her anxious energy, but we had no way to call her back in when we needed to go out, or night had fallen. Mina really knew no commands at all. She has come so far since then. Our lawn has suffered for it, but she is doing ever so well. The strange sound in the video is Mr Moss's whistle. It does sound more like a whistle in real

life. -Polly
