Je vous présente Happy
(Let me introduce you to Happy)

Yes, this is my dog, Happy. I adopted this rescue puppy through the G.R.I.N. organization in January 2023 when she was an 8-month-old puppy. Half mischievous, half genius, she is the little spirit that keeps me young. You can read more about her puppy story here.
Here is a recent picture of the two of us on the top of the Clark Mountain in the Adirondacks.

A little bit more about our family
Happy, and I have the support of a wonderful family. Here are the three other members of our pack. From left to right, you have Zaku, the perfect golden retriever, my husband (Mr. T) experiencing the beautiful fall colors on our daily walk, and my son Sacha in a serious close-up for a hockey profile.
