Shadow got her name because when we adopted her as a puppy she followed us everywhere we went, close to heel. She was quite curious, adventurous and good natured. She has given us more than eight years of joy.

From the first day we brought her home from a rescue mom, Shadow
has brought us joy. Her name came from how closely she followed
us around as a ten-week-old puppy.

Thanks for your kind comments. I plan to continue this series of
past postings, five-years' worth, each Tuesday. And starting next
Monday we'll see our cat, KC's history with DU unfold as well.
