Pet of the Month – October 2014

Shadow

Shadow

Please welcome Shadow into the PebbleCreek community. Shadow is a miniature Labradoodle (3/4 poodle and 1/4 lab) that we adopted in Waco, Texas, back in 2004 when he was nine weeks old. He weighs 27.7 pounds and he is a sweetheart. Many people think he is still a puppy due to his spunk during our daily walks.

We adopted Shadow after researching for a low shedding friendly dog that would be good around our grandchildren. His breed has been used as a therapy dog. Shadow has encountered people who are terrified of dogs and has changed their opinion that not all dogs are bad.

Shadow loves to fetch on land and in water. When my first grandson came over to our house at the age of fourteen months, Shadow dropped a ball at his feet. We told our grandson to throw the ball for him and the two of them played fetch for an hour. Shadow did the same thing when my father came for a visit. My father could not reach the ball due to a stroke, so Shadow started tossing the ball up to him so they could play together.

Please feel free to come greet Shadow when you see us walking at PebbleCreek starting in October. We both look forward to meeting you.
