After the passing of Flame,
there was a quietness and emptiness in our house that was
deafening. After 4
months we decided we were ready for a new dog. One evening Cyn
talked about getting another dog. That night, Mark was on a
conference call for work at midnight. During the call, Mark went
onto Craig's List. This was only the second Mark has ever
visited this on-line marketplace. He found a Golden Retriever
being offered for free to a good home. He sent an e-mail asking
for more information.
The next morning Cyn,
un-knowing of the evening e-mail, received a phone call asking
if we would like to see Cinnamon that evening. Needless to say
Cyn was dumbfounded. She called Mark, Mark drove to take a look at
this small, rather crazy golden retriever. She was not quite 2
years old. She was in a family with 3 kids, with little time to
train the dog. That weekend Mark & Cyn went back to visit the
dog. We decided that we would take her.
Since then she has
made a great transition to our home. We have gotten her through
2 sets of obedience classes to date. Cyn calls her Cinnamon Pie,
Mark calls her Cinna-monster. She has calmed down considerably
since taking her in. She is a wonderful dog to have,a nd would
not trade her in for anything in the world!
