Regal Scout

This is Scout, our special--and deeply-misunderstood--half-Shepherd, half-Husky rescue dog. She's disturbingly smart, but combined with all of her overprotective anxieties, she's sometimes just-plain disturbed. She's such a love with the kids, though, and was so helpful when they were babies, checking on them regularly through the night, letting me know when something was amiss.
