Tomorrow is 1 year since we rescued Rags
Here is the first picture I took after we arrived home. 
She was one huge matt from head to stubby tail. I had to shave her down which was quite the process. Boy was she thin, the clippers were bouncing off of her spine when I shaved her. YUCK! 
She was quite embarrassed after the shave down and she looked a bit angry. 
She eventually got over the embarrassment and started smiling again. 
She then fell in love. 
then made some new friends 
and more friends, 
She learned the pool was a nice place to hang out during the summer 
She then made even more friends: 
Her hair got long 
Then her Mommy gave her a haircut and it was bad (choppy looking).  So she got shaved again, because Mommy couldn't even it out. I will post a picture as soon as I upload it.
All in all I think it's been a good year. She's come a long way from being that underweight, matted mess. Happy Anniversary Rags! Love, Mommy |

| Happy anniversary, Rags!! :ghug: Can't believe it's been a year already! Where DOES the time go??
It looks like her ears have started laying a little flatter. Is that right, or am I just seeing it differently? She's such a lucky girl to have found you and your family. She certainly is a testament to your goodness and love! |
| Happy Anniversary Rags! You have a very happy sheepie, good job Elissa! |
| Happy Anniversary Rags! You are very lucky to have such a caring family. And you look beautiful in your longer hair...such a transformation. |

They did seem less noticeable when her coat was longer. Though I am not sure if it was just the hair. lol You can see her ears in the haircut pictures below. Her ears popped up again after the hair was gone, but I don't think they are sticking up as much as they did. Here are her most recent pictures: This was the choppy haircut I was not able to fix. (sucks being a perfectionist  ) I had tried using the guard on the clippers.
and here was the the haircut the next day. 
As you can see she was a bit cold so she was curled into a tight ball. She was not happy about having to get a haircut two days in a row. She is back to her happy self again and seems even happier because she can see again.  |
| Awww she still looks pretty, love her expression. |
