IT's been almost 2 full months now that she's been carrying Allie's picture around with her. We went down to the animal shelter today just so she could see & pet a number of cats/dogs, hoping this would get something? out of her system. We saw about a 6 month black lab being adopted right as we were leaving- she thought it was one of Allie's babies. She's played with a beagle named BUD that was apparently on the news that morning for awhile! She's definately an animal lover, & I survived not coming home with a new pet. Hopefully this helped her for a little while.
