Every day of life gives me a reason to smile.
Update: Xica was adopted on December 4th!
This well-behaved, endearing girl reminds us of Baloo, the heroic blue bear featured in Rudyard Kipling's "The Jungle Book".
Xica has a Teddy Bear-like personality. She is engaging and chatty, full of enthusiasm and joy.
She is a Shepherd mix with distinguished blue coloring. She is spayed, about 4 years of age, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.
Like Elgin, Xica is one of the eight dogs we rescued on Thanksgiving Eve from a government shelter. She was reportedly surrendered there when her previous owner lost the family home to foreclosure.
Besides being good with dogs, Xica reportedly is housetrained and enjoys children.
