New customer

Ok, now that I've shipped off my two old girls from foster care I'm ready for another. This Saturday I go to pick up my new foster! She is a 4 year old Gordon that is 99% blind. She is not, however, as big as the Gordons we all think of. She is very small, only about 35 pounds. She is out of the Springset kennel. They say she is wonderful and has hunting championships and that no one can even tell she is blind. Can't wait to get her. Wish me luck.

She would have gone home with everyone she met!! She… Continue
