We adopted Raven last year from North Texas Aussie Rescue. She was a puppy, but has grown to almost 50 pounds. She is wonderful! Very smart and learns quickly. I’m retired, so she follows me around all day like my little assistant. We water the plants and check the mailbox together. She is especially fond of going to the bank drive-thru, as she always gets a cookie from the teller. My wife and I love her very much! – Jay Sabatucci
