Gretchen

5-Apr-97. Gretchen adopted me from the pound when she was about 5 months old. She's pictured here a few days later.

7-Dec-97. At 13 months old, she's settled down a lot and responded to training quite well. Happily, she's still very much a puppy!

28-Mar-2002. At almost 5 and a half, she's matured into one of the sweetest, most loveable dogs you could ever hope to know. She enjoys her regular beach outings with the pack, and loves to go for walks, runs, and drives just about anywhere.

28-Mar-2002. And here's a shot of both Gretchen and her partner in crime, Dude. Dude's 12 and a half, and just as vocal as ever.

1-Jan-2003. Happy new year! Gretchen contemplates the sunset from the cliffs above the Mendocino Coastline...
