How does this photo represent the theme – Life is Better Together?
This was the second week we got Fledge. He was terrified of everyone and everything. Aeris really put him at ease. He would wait for her to go to sleep and then would flop on down and cozy up to her. Two years later, they are the snuggliest pair of best friends I have ever seen. Without Aeris leading the way, I think Fledge would have had a long, timid transition into the home. I can't imagine a life without my canine kids always by my side. But life is better together since they also have each other!
