​Hi everyone, I am soooo delighted to be a member of the St. Matthew by the Lake pet family.  I was rescued from a puppy mill over in Missouri.  I was in such sad shape that my they had to shave my coat which led my current mom to think I was a Chihuahua.  When she found out I was a Yorkshire Terrier she still brought me home.  I believe it is amazing how we see different people and think one thing about them and their personality.  Then, when we take time to get to know him or her, we find out he or she is an entirely different individual. Looks can be deceiving to humans and sometimes to us dogs as well.  Although, I believe God has given us dogs a greater sense about what people we can and can’t trust.  What is really cool is that God sees us and who we are the first time.  We can’t hide our true self from God.  This includes the wonderful qualities of generosity and compassion we have in our heart as well as those not so good ones.  God accepts us for who we are and helps us become genuinely good from the surface of our skin the depth of our hearts.
