Zurie - Golden Retriever #4
Tim let Ann name all the girl dogs, and he named the boy dogs. Since she came from Carla (godchild of Wendy's mom Teddy), who brought her up from Missouri, Ann came up with Zurie (as in Ms. Souri). She didn't much care what you called her (also called Z or by Auntie Louise- as fur face, because she pretty much would come when she wanted to. She is golden in color and is a true retriever - it is ALL about the ball. The problem is that she wouldn't necessarily drop the ball because she also was a big chewer. Ann had a series of health issues so didn't train her properly, but there is still hope. As Bubba was getting old and sick, Zurie keyed into playing with adults and still doesn't much know what to do with other dogs. Zurie has been a big source of comfort since Tim has died. Like her predecessor, Misha, Zurie will jump off the dock and put her head full into the water if she is retrieving something.
