Etta (formerly Sparkle) was adopted from rescue approximately a week after we had to say goodbye to our beloved GSP, Duncan (also from Rescue). She was from a litter of pups from Kentucky. We were convinced by my college bound daughter that a puppy was just what we needed to get us out of the doldrums! She has more than fulfilled that purpose. Amazingly, Etta has a personality quirk or habit, that is exactly like one from our many previous GSPs that we have had over the last 25 years. She is a delightful, smart, cuddly girl. She is spoiled rotten and loving it! I hope to do therapy work with her, as she is very people oriented and attentive to emotions. My father is a widower and she sticks by his side and makes him smile whenever we are at his house. Had I known, I would have taken two puppies from this litter, she is just that wonderful to own! Thank you GSPCare of Ohio for all the work that you do and the attention to detail you demand to make sure prospective owners and dogs are closely matched!
