Overload: 8/2 - Introducing ....

Ms. Overload!  

Overload came to retirement this past Saturday in hopes of finding her forever home real soon!  She found the ride back to Baltimore from Lusby a bit boring and pretty much slept the entire way, only opening her eyes when we came to a stop but with a few head scratches from my son, she quickly fell back asleep. (By the way, she loves kids and loves being hugged all over!)


She quickly figured out the all the craziness in our household and has joined the pack perfectly.  She is definitely a follower and is quite content at just going with the flow.  She's met the cats and was curious about them, gave a few sniffs and backed off real quick when the one hissed - lol!  

I'm really impressed that she has a full-haired butt, no bare buns for this girl. 

And she just loves being outside and going on walks.  She does bunny hops when we get outside as if she just can't contain herself!  And, she loves doing zoomies too when she first goes out. 
 (I think she wishes that she could stay out longer; but, gotta be extra careful with the black dogs in the sun and heat this time of year!)

She's just so gorgeous and shiny!

Didn't take her long to find the super-comfy ginormous dog bed. 
No bed fails for her, she got it right on the first try!

She has no hesitations about being in the kennel and can usually be found in there when she's napping.  If you look closely, she even goes in when it's already occupied! 
 (Grande is so laid back that he actually enjoys the company)

And here's a quick video of her favorite thing to do (she's the one on the right):



Rest assured, this girl will be going home at the next adoption day, she's just too perfect to pass up!  
Better get your app in now so you can get in line to meet her.
