That contemplative stare has me asking...

Annie are you okay? Are you okay, Annie?

[–] Legosgirl@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

The three chipmunk stare. I know it well. She is definitely not okay.

Is Annie a GSP? If not she's a close cousin. Beautiful pup!

It's a hard knock life for us.

She definitely got kicked. We rescued her to be a pet instead of a tool to make money. She's a lover not a hunter. Very perceptive my friend.

Oh no! I was making a joke on the name Annie. I had no idea, poor baby. Glad you saved her.
