Wilma was turned in to the shelter in Dillon, Montana towards the end of November 2009. That's where i saw a picture on the internet of a very cute dog
sitting for the camera. What a nice dog I thought, filled out the adoption application, and drove up to Dillon the next weekend to meet her. When i got there she came into the room and ran around crazily saying hi to everyone she could find with a lick in the face, including the 24 toed cat that hangs out in the office there. So we went for a walk and she stared at me all suspicious like this-
I decided she was a keeper, and I'm sure she remained suspicious of me when she had to stay in the shelter for a few more weeks while I finished up some seasonal work in Jackson.
Then the big day came, January 2nd, I picked her up on my drive to Missoula and we started our learning experience together.
