Hey, there, Shirley! (I LOVE that name, so, shhhh....) I'm Kari, and, I'm a pal of Ms. K9Soul's. I love her, actually! So, any friend of hers, I'm happy to meet! Your dogs are beautiful, although I have to say Ginger speaks to me somehow. She looks so sweet, even if she might be a bit dopey. She does sound like she's gone though a lot, poor thing, but, lucky for her, you found her. And, I know Jess understands the soul dog thing, as do many others in here. I know I do. Bruno was mine. If it's possible, I think my dog, Finn, and, I are developing a connection as strong, though, so, it's been lovely. Welcome to Pet Talk!
