Tallie, age 5

My name is Tallulah Belle McLaughlin, but my friends call me Tallie. I was found on the tough streets of Baton Rouge while my mom was in college. Although my history is a mystery, I like to tell people I am a pure-bred mutt. My mom Lindsey is a die-hard Saints fan, so when deciding what day to celebrate my birthday she chose Jan. 5 because Drew Brees was born then too. While Louisiana was a blast, I am very happy to call Houston home. The first things anyone ever comments about are my ears. They are big and beautiful; they are my signature. I have major separation issues though, so being in Houston is the best since my grandma lives here too. Sometimes I think that grandma loves me more than Lindsey, but don’t tell her that! My favorite thing is to snuggle with Lindsey when she finally comes home from her nursing shifts.
