Martin: This guy walked in the back door looking for more biscuits. Lucky the cat wasn't around.

 Me: In their first 24 hours they… 

SLEPT TOGETHER!

Let sleeping dogs lie, right!? :-) Both dogs had a bed in our room & were good sleepers all night.

ATE TOGETHER!

Both had good appetites and didn't bother each other.

RAN TOGETHER!

This was going to be a hard test and they passed with flying colors. I took both of them on a run by myself. We jogged 5 miles on the trails with no issues! Amy stayed by my left side the whole time and Harley ran just ahead of us on her retractable leash. They are athletic dogs!

POSED TOGETHER!

Harley has the modeling thing down and she's already showing Amy how to strike a pose.

BOB LIKES HER!
Amy truly is a nice dog who has already had some training. This helps tremendously. She is gentle, doesn't annoy Harley but they do like one another (we think). We get to keep Amy on trial for a couple weeks but so far she is fitting into our life pretty well. Hmmm? Harley is the ultimate judge so if she passes Amy, we will too.

Amy is a good name but IF we keep her we plan to give her a new name. We have several ideas. Here they are in order of our favorites. Macy (after a favorite breakfast cafe' in Flagstaff called Macy's. Since Amy is a rescue dog from Flagstaff this name has a special connection!), Sammie, Ace, Trek (Joan's idea), Rasha (April's suggestion - means gazelle). Any others?
