Shanna is two years old today.

Shanna at 8 weeks
We brought her home in July of 2021 at 8 weeks.

Casey, Quinn, Shanna, and the Mop
Her favorite toy was an old mop that she found near the trash, it was ready to throw out and she sequestered it for her own. Casey and Quinn didn’t know what to make of it as she chased around the yard with it in her mouth. We thought she was ready to mount it and fly away.

She forcibly inserted herself into the pack, like it or not.

I believe Casey is thinking “What have you done!?” Sigh.
She wasn’t shy in an even bigger pack.

She was not phased when the pack was bigger
She took command of the best bed and toys.

Mine!
This is no shrinking violet of a dog.
That’s a nice stick you are chewing on, I want it…

Casey, Shanna, Quinn
They are family.

They learned to share.

Although she definitely took ownership.
Quinn taught her the bad habit of digging for gophers or moles.
Getting bigger…

One year old, definitely the deva.

One Year Old
At 18 months, still a deva. Belly rubs are her favorite.

Still a Deva
She has developed into a smart, funny, spirited, somewhat headstrong, and loving dog.
She is still very much a playful puppy at two.

Happy Birthday Shanna!

Who me? Yes, I was talking to you.
And Happy Birthday to her best friend Inyo, whose second birthday was yesterday.

Happy Second Birthday Inyo
What a wonderful tribute to a lovely dog and her family! You are all pretty lucky…..although Casey may still be wondering!😘
She definitely pushes around Casey.
