We adopted an 8 week old puppy from your shelter in Oct of 2011.  Her name at that time was Mercedes.  We changed her name to Shiloh and she has become a full fledged member of our family.

Shiloh is a very social dog who has a unique ability to sense whether other dogs, of all ages and stature, want to play or not.

I'm including a few photos to show how she has matured from her first few days here to her current 1 year old status as of 25 Aug 2012.

Thanks again for all your help last year.

Update August '18

We adopted Shiloh seven years ago. 

We celebrated Shiloh's seventh birthday over the weekend. She is a loving friend and companion and keeps us fit with three walks a day and many plays in between. We are so fortunate to have her with us. Thank you for making it possible.

Update May '20

Shiloh is still very much with us & will be turning 9 August 25th. She loves the snow but not the hot weather which is understandable considering that she came from Iqaluit. She is a great mix of border collie, husky, lab & probably her DNA has a few other special elements making her quite the Arctic Special. We have been quite blessed with her & get lots of fresh air all year round. Shiloh is our 4th dog. She like the others have us well trained & yes she is spoiled like all the other dogs we adopted into our home. Her initial name on the cage initially was Mercedes but I chose Shiloh to be our special name for her.
