the song is "Just the Way You Look Tonight" NeufVies' Graceful Glenys Updated 12-25-01 Glenys joined the Zoo on July 17, 2001, at 11 weeks and one day old. She was born in a puppymill in Missouri, and was very lucky to be given to rescue rather than euthanized because of her deafness. A couple weeks earlier I got an e-mail from the rescue group's puppymill person informing me there was an 8-week old deaf English Setter puppy on the list, and if I was interested in fostering him or her (we didn't know yet) they'd make sure the pup was put on the next transport up this way. It took 3 weeks and I think those were the most anxious weeks of my life - I couldn't wait until she got here! Glenys with Raggs, Blizzard, and Louie: "I ain't afraid of no big dogs!" When she arrived, she was a sick little girl. She had coccidia, giardia, worms, fleas, tapeworms, and the biggest umbilical hernia I've ever seen. It took several weeks to get her healthy. Within a couple of weeks I knew I would keep her, so I switched her to a raw diet and from that point on she blossomed. She's still leggy and slender but isn't skinny any more, and she's so solid and sculpted. She's very smart, and has one of the sweetest, softest temperaments I've ever run across. Her big sisters love her, her foster sisters/brothers love her, and even the cats love her. Glenys with foster sister Katie She learns very quickly. After a 6-week basic manners class, she took and passed the Canine Good Citizenship test, one day after she was 6 months old. Such a good, sweet girl! Glenys and Penny Arriving back on shore after her first swim. Blizzard says "What took you so long, slowpoke?!" My pretty baby
