Once again I would like to say thank you for saving our puppy. Tahoe as you can see is in Tahoe now. She loves hiking and running in the trees. She has learned so much and we cannot keep her down while hiking. Once again Thank you.

While in rescue:

Adopted on December 5, 2001

Chill (renamed Tahoe) was a 4-5 month old, black/tan, extremely intelligent and sweet little rascal. She was easy to train and was loving and cuddly. She was a little scrapper and would be happy in a family that loved German Shepherds.
