Gramps is a 7-10 year old Shepherd / Sheltie mix that weighs about 50 pounds. Gramps is a very sweet and affectionate boy that seems to get along well with other dogs. Don’t let his age fool you, as soon as a squeaky toy is around, this senior man transforms into a playful puppy! Gramps walks well on the leash and has a laid-back and easy disposition. We hope that Gramps gets to spend his retirement years in a wonderful home and part of an amazing family! |

A new survey on the sleep habits of Americans finds that a small percentage of us like to sleep in the nude.
Eight percent of respondents to a national sleep survey commissioned by the home furnishings retailer Anna’s Linens admit hitting the sack without PJs. Seventy-four percent of respondents wear pajamas to bed. The same percentage of Americans sleep on their sides. Sixteen percent sleep on their stomachs and ten percent on their backs.
Additional findings:
47 percent share a bed with someone who snores.
Just ten percent of respondents said they were able to recall nearly all their dreams in the morning.
65 percent say they get a “restful night’s sleep” only three nights or less per week.
Ten percent say they get a restful night’s sleep every night, while 25 percent say they sleep restfully five to six nights per week.

The survey finds that Friday night provides the most restful sleep, followed closely by Saturday. The night that provides the least restful night is Sunday, followed by Monday.
The nationwide survey involved more than 3,700 individuals.

Shiloh is a 4.5 month old Shepherd mix that currently weighs about 20 pounds; we believe she will grow up to be a medium to larger breed girl. Shiloh is a happy, fun and very playful pup. She gets along great with other dogs and would do best living in a home with one. She is a young puppy that can be mouthy at times, because of this we recommend her in a home with older children. She also seems to get along well with cats. Shiloh would do great with an active family. If you think that Shiloh can become a member of your family, stop by the HSGA today and meet this sweetheart! |
