Sadie has a home, new name

My grandparents came out to visit and Sadie greeted them by crawling right up into my grandpa's lap and laying her head on his stomach.

That was about all it took for them to fall in love with her, fill out an adoption application and pick out a new name for her, Molly.

That was two weeks ago. She still needed to be spayed and updated on shots and my grandparents needed to get some doggie essentials since they haven't had one in two decades. But now she's completely vetted and officially crate trained, so I'll be bring her to them when I head home to the Chicago suburbs for a cousin's bridal shower tomorrow.

I've been keeping them posted on her trips to the vet and daily activities, and they seem more excited every time I talk to them. They're both retired so they'll be able to be home with her all day, which Molly will love. They've gotten her plenty of toys and a harness for walking.

I think Sophia will be happy that she can still play with Molly when we visit my grandparents, since the two of them have such a good time running around the yard and wrestling together.
