This precious girl has been waiting for her "fur-ever" home for 76 days. However, the Sioux Falls Area Humane Society was not the first shelter for Bessie. In a heartwarming Facebook post, staff from the Sioux Falls Area Humane Society tell Bessie's story. It wasn't easy for her. She came from a previous shelter before she came to the Sioux Falls Area Humane Society.

Why Was This South Dakota Dog In Shelters For So Long?

Bessie is the best friend anyone could have. Some at the Sioux Falls Area Humane Society think her forever home took a bit longer because she does not get along with every dog she meets sometimes.

I’m a good girl, I just have one flaw that no one seems willing to look past: I don’t love every dog. I like some dogs, just not all of them. That’s it. That’s the reason I’m still here. But people? People are my whole world. When I see you, My tail starts wagging, my face lights up, my heart lifts, Maybe you will be the one who finally sees me.

Hooray for Bessie and the staff of Sioux Falls Area Humane Society for another great adoption story!

13 Times Sioux Falls Made it into a 'Jeopardy!' Question

If the world was divided into Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune people, I would be down for Jeopardy! all the way. It's a lot more fun, it makes me feel smart because I can retain lots of trivia, and I am a horrible speller. So Wheel is out, no whammies.

Recently I discovered (I mean wasted a lot of time on) a website that is an archive of clues that have been on Jeopardy!.

While digging around the archive, I wanted to find out how often Sioux Falls came up in a question (Answer) on the show. Since 1990 Sioux Falls has been part of a question or an answer 13 times.
