Greg found her in our backyard. Some neighborhood kids were "playing" with her - not hurting her, but she was terrified. She and her sibs and mom were dumped - we lived near a huge cemetary that was a very popular dumping place. Everyone on our block had at least one dog - all from the cemetary. Anyway, my birthday was a couple of days away, and once I saw her (Greg had put her in our garage temporarily, for her safety) I asked for her as a birthday present. We already had 2 cats (can you imagine?) and a third seemed like a lot. But she was ours of course.
I look back at those days and it's an entirely different life. Greg & I were not long married, he was young and strong, and we shared a beautiful 2-family house with his parents. I had a job I loved, Greg was working, and we had all the $$ we needed. Life was so, so good.
