Found her on the internet, a shelter in North Carolina had posted her picture online. Jumped in the car the next day and drove 4 hours, hoping that she was still there. She was, in an absolutely apaulling animal shelter. Did the meet and greet and she’s been living with us for 4 years now. She’s the most lovable and loyal dog I’ve ever owned. She is a Cockerpoo (Cocker Spaniel and Poodle mix) and her name is Katchen.

SharonAHenson
Lovely story and beautiful dog …..you can tell she is in a wonderful home.
Andy Mueller
Thank you Sharon, that is very kind of you to say. Yes Katchen hit the lottery when we found her, but so did my wife and I, she is such a sweetheart. Just last night she was literally hugging me, while sleeping with her head on my pillow.

So adorable, you captured her nature in this shot.
I love the deep shadows, for me it symbolises how she came out of them to you.
Lance Leopold
Wonderful story and light, on a great looking little dog!!!!
Andy Mueller
Thank you all again, and yes Marion, I like your comment about her coming out of the shadows (dark) to come to us into the light & warmth.
Marion Cullen
You really need to frame this one Andreas. }

That brings tears to my eyes! So happy you found each other! I volunteer at our local shelter taking photos of the adoptables in hopes that someone will feel the way you did and get right in their cars to adopt! thank goodness we have a beautiful shelter with wonderful caring people! That’s so sad that she was living in poor conditions there. She’s absolutely beautiful. I love the lighting here too.
Andy Mueller
Thank you MinnieLee, Katchen came to the shelter as a stray. She was in a cage barely tall enough for her to stand up in. There were about 3-4 other cages stacked on top of hers. I had to literally kneel down to get a look at her. Immediatley went to the folks running the shelter to let me spend sometime with her. Needless to say she was totally going crazy being able to move about and run around. She met my other dog (also adopted from a shelter in PA), and seemed to get along “ok”. She got her shot, I paid $28, and off we went. She took to us right away, and the two “girls” are like sisters to each other, inseperable. So glad we got her !!!

Still Lmao @ Cockerpoo…
(I’m such a child)
Should Katchen have two little Akzent dots above the a? Or am I being an idiot as usual?
lol
Andy Mueller replied
It’s weird, my wife wanted to give a “German” name, so she came up with “Katchen” ??? Never have heard that name but whatever … I had her renamed to “Beemer” when we first got her. My other dogs name is Schatzie, so I call them Shotgun and Ketchup …..
Victoria Jostes

Michael Bermi...
LMAO!
