Julie

Julie became part of our family three years ago this month. My husband and I had decided it was time to add to our family. We had lost our little girl Ariel, one of our three cresteds. As much as we missed Ariel we knew we had room in our hearts and our home for another baby. I looked on pet finder for Chinese Crested and it led me to Naked K9 & Small Dog Rescue. We looked at all the dogs up for adoption and as soon as we saw Julie's face we knew she was the one. We filled out an application for adoption. I got so excited when I heard my references were being checked. Then Sue, her foster Mom called me and we talked for awhile about Julie, Seamus and Lillie. So I was approved and was so happy. It was a very long 2 weeks until we met her. Sue drove in a huge snow storm and brought Julie to our house. Julie was so shy and scared. After Sue left her with us she hid. We kept hearing this high pitched noise which turned out to be Julie's whining. The next day my stepson brought his puppy and Julie was scared and jumped right in my lap and that was it, she trusted me and accepted me. She and I bonded. It took about 3 weeks to accept Neil, Julie does not like men. As we got to know and love Julie, we found out how sweet, fun, loving and really smart she is. She settled into our family wonderfully. Seamus passed away that May and Julie and Lillie grew closer. When Lillie went blind Julie kept an eye on her. When we went to a cottage, Julie took care of Lillie making sure she didn't go near the cliffs, it was amazing to watch. New members have joined our family -Dougie and Petey, Julie is the boss. We love our Julie more than words can say. Thank you NakedK9 for bringing Julie into our life.
