This new chapter of my life began on a Thursday - 9 December 2010

Hello Friends,


This is where it all began!

I was sitting quietly in my digs at the Lort Smith Animal Hospital and in came some people.  One of them had a big camera in his hands and took a few photos of some of my Lort Smith room buddies.  After a few minutes a lady walked in and straight past my section to admire all the dogs visiting.

Before long she came back to pat all of us and my door opened.  It was then she picked me up and did everything in her power to make me look at her!

See, the thing is I had a special collar on at the time to prevent me licking where my recent "doctoring" operation had left me with some stitches. (I was smarter than my minders though because I could still reach them)  It was difficult for me to make eye contact with this human because of this collar - so I didn't.

[the photo above was at the time I was wanting to be disinterested and she couldn't see my eyes]

Just when I thought "good I'm on the ground again - see you later", she called my name (how did she know it) and I automatically ran up and wagged my tail and looked her in the eyes with some excitement.  This lady is now my Mum.

I could tell it was love at  first sight for her! Humans are so predictable!!!

Ooh, gotta go right now.  Time for a nap then my afternoon walk!

Two of my favourite things!!!

Until next time - LOTS OF LOVE TO YOU ALL,

Douglas XXX
