Summer, my newly-adopted basset

Found her on the Fourth of July- which was my last basset’s birthday, she died about 5 months after Summer was born, which was eight years ago yesterday, and I brought Summer home the day before yesterday, easily making yesterday her best birthday ever- she was being given away free after weaning her last puppy, she belonged to a breeder. She’s quite petite and the sweetest little girl, getting used to her new life of love and sofas, cleaned ears and trimmed nails, and the slices of deli ham we’ve found she loves.
