I've decided Poppy's gonna feature more in my blog - my daughter Susie is a bit miffed she doesn't get more of a mention but hopefully she'll not read this (only joking Susie!). We got Poppy from the Animal Shelter when she was 6 months, in August 08 - I can't believe she's 5 next month :(
We didn't know what we were looking for - I grew up with dogs on our farm but I refused to take one on until I was having my change of career and could be with the dog 24/7 cos dogs are people animals - they like company. When we arrived at the shelter, most of the dogs were jumping against the wire doors of their pens, barking like crazy - but Poppy was cowering down at the back of her pen, behind her bed. We asked to see her and, when she was let out of her pen, she lay down at our feet and rolled over. I just cried....and I'm not sentimental about animals, having been brought up on a farm, but she has such kind eyes - everyone who comes to our house just falls in love with her - she knows how to gaze at them adoringly so that she'll be pampered all evening with scratches and strokes.
Playing rough with her best friend Belle!
