Mara told me that Ash and her brother Beau were rescued from a shelter in Prince Georges County. The owners took good care of them, but could not keep them anymore.  When we got Ash, she was about a year old.  Beau was adopted by an older couple.   

The first time I saw my Ash, she was running around like a maniac.  However, the minute we sat down to talk to Mara, she decided to jump on the couch with Beau and rest.  Those two of them (Beau & Ash) were stuck together like glue.  I was worried that Ash would miss Beau too much if we adopted her.  Before I had to make a decision to adopt one or two dogs, I called Mara and she told me Beau was already adopted.   

I had a beagle, daschund named Sammy.  When I lost Sammy to cancer, my heart broke.  I did not want to get attached to another dog.  My sister Mary convinced me that our other beagle HoneyBunch needed a friend.  She led me to the beagle rescue website and the rest is history.
