GRR would like to shine the “Golden Spotlight” on former GRR pup, Winter Wednesday (23-111), now known as Willow! Willow (Winter) came to GRR after her original family made the difficult decision to surrender her once they realized their children were allergic to dogs. Initially, when Willow was adopted by her fur-ever family, she showed some anxious reactivity (to new or unknown sounds, experiences, etc.), had some definite “puppy behaviors”, but was both beautiful and boisterous!

Oh, what a difference a year makes! Willow has transformed in so many ways. She loves playing, being outdoors, and loves to stretch out for a snooze on the bed (her human’s bed, that is). Willow has PLENTY of personality, she aims to please, and when her humans arrive home or a new person comes over, she will show off one of her toys with such pride (she doesn’t just wag her tail, she wags half of her body with joy)!  Willow is quite vocal and will alert humans that she wants attention or to play with a groan-like grumble. Overall, she has grown so much and has become a comical, cuddly, beloved part of her family!
