Hello? My name is Lucy







Hi. My name is Lucy.
Don't be surprised to see me here. I don't know much about why it took so long to get here, but I'm supposed to be here.
I was walking around in the cold with no collar with my friend, Monroe. A nice human helped us and then we went for a car ride...I love care rides, but the rest....well, it was awful. We ended up living in a cage at the Humane society. The people were nice enough, but the dogs there are soooo noisy! Just when I thought I had a grip, they took me to surgery to be 'Spade'. I don't know what that's all about, but it made my tummy hurt. I am better now because it's been 5 days since then.
On Friday 1/18 a lady came and looked at me and smiled. Whatever- I thought she must be like the rest of the people walking by my cage. She went to play with baby dogs, but came back with the freedom lady! She took me from my cage and we went outside to play! She said something about 'on hold' and a decision tomorrow, but then came back that same day. She put a rope around my neck and we left....... and left Monroe. That makes me sad.
I think about Monroe, but I am so happy to be where I am!
I went out on a Friday night on the town! Can you believe it? The nice lady took me shopping at Pet Smart and everyone who worked there helped us and petted me and called me beautiful and well behaved. You don't even know half of it. We went out to dinner after shopping and I met other nice people and two dogs, too! We played a lot. The lady said that they are my 1st cousins and that I have more of them to meet! I sure hope that means I'll see them again!
So far everytime this lady leaves, she comes back to me. I really like that. She takes me in the car and has food and water for me and a bed and a couple toys and she gave me a rawhide bone that I love. She bought me a really nice collar and a pretty brass tag that says "Reward- Get me back home". I think I like that because this place that we keep coming back to she calls home and I like it here.
I am still working on trying to train the lady, but she says we have lots of time to learn.
I'll keep you posted on my progress. I'm sleepy now.....a nap in the sun sounds good.
I want to meet all of you- {wag, wag}

Christmas come and gone




But, here are pictures of my tree! I was sad to take it down and can't wait to go up North and cut one down for Christmas '08!


Merry Christmas!
