Looks like Teagan. Acts like Teagan. But it's not Teagan, because it's TESS! Today at the dog park we ran into one of Teagan's biological sisters and her name is Tess.They came from a litter of 5 girls and the Humane Society gave them all names that started with M's. Teagan's name was Mona before we got her. Tess was obviously renamed by her new parents as well.
I've always hoped to one day run into one of Teagan's litter mates. I knew she was Teagan's sister the moment I saw Tess. They do look an awful lot alike, don't they? Teagan is a little taller and longer. Tess is a little more blond and more sturdy. Teagan's tail is longer and curlier. Tess is more well adjusted and doesn't have any hang ups about other dogs or resource guarding. However, it is clear that they are related. They both love to run fast and chase balls. Also they both can entertain themselves for hours with just 2 tennis balls.
It was hard to get a good picture because Tess was moving so fast but here's a shot of the two sisters together. I wonder if some day we'll run into the other 3 girls in the litter. I hope so because it was so cool meeting Tess at the dog park today!

Well, Teagan had a little psycho b*tch episode with another dog shortly before Tess arrived and once she snaps it's difficult for her to recompose herself. Sometimes it seemed like she did know Tess but then other times she was growling at her too. Teagan is such so protective of me that she probably didn't like or understand me being sweet on Tess. Maybe next time Teagan will be in a better frame of mind. Keeley made this weird sort of eye-rolling kind of face as if he was thinking, "Oh, that's just grrreat; now there's TWO of them!" -Erin
