Middle Grand dog


Introducing Holi (short for Holiday), my middle grand dog. Holi joined the family during the holiday season nearly two years ago. My son, who is a police officer, found Holi standing over the body of another dog, probably her brother, on a back road. She was covered with fleas and ticks, but not injured. She spent the first day in their garage, until she visited the vet and received a check-up. Then, she joined big sister dog, Kasey and her human family. Her back is marked like a German Shepherd and she has a blue tongue. She has a great personality, gets very excited when greeting a guest (sometimes little puddles on the floor), and can spend hours chasing lizards in the back yard. While she is inside, she naps in a chair in the living room that faces the road where she can watch the traffic. When the family travels, Holi goes to a kennel, where she is very anxious and probably confused, therefore a little difficult. However, the kennel has an employee who is slightly autistic. She is a great comfort to Holi and is the only one who can care for her.
