Ginger (3/12) renamed Molly Malone

About 6 years we adopted a female Basset we named Liza Doolittle. She had many health problems, but we nursed her back to health with TLC. She was our baby and passed away last May. I cried for 2 weeks. It was so sad to lose her. I loved having a Basset baby girl. At Christmas time I started looking at Golden Gate's site looking at all the pretty girls that needed homes. In January a stray girl basset arrived at the Sacramento Animal Shelter.The ladies at GGBR claimed her as soon as they knew her owner did not come forward. Jessica Dickson picked her up and fostered her. Jessica nursed her back to health since she got kennel cough while in the shelter. Jessica's daughter named her Ginger because her hair is so pretty and gingered color. We got to meet Ginger in the park on February 11. She rode home in Papa's ( Bob's) lap. When we got her home we renamed Ginger Molly Malone to honor Bob's Irish heritage. Molly liked her new name and home except Murphy Molly's Basset brother was very grouchy with her. After many dog cookies Murphy got for a happy attitude toward the new girl he decided that Molly is alright and now he sleeps with her and occasionally plays with her too. Molly and Murphy are sniffing partners on long walks which Molly loves. Molly also has a Lab sister named Sheena and they are best of friends since day 1.Molly also likes our 2 cats. Molly is a part of our family now. Molly is a daddy's girl and sleeps on his lap every night while Bob watches t.v Molly has been such a blessing to us. She is so sweet and loving. We just love her and could not have asked for a sweeter girl. She is also such a pretty girl. Proud Basset Hound Mommy and Daddy, Kay and Bob Beeson
