Daisy

I decided I needed an older dog to avoid all the trials that go with a puppy. Daisy seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. I found out that this was not totally true. I quickly found out that she is a climber, a jumper and can run like the wind. The first night, she was great. The next day I saw her walk on my furniture.....oh not my sofa or chairs but on the tables and if something was in the way...too bad. I was plugging in a cord on my computer and heard Daisy when she jumped up on my computer chair. I looked up in time to see two brown eyes watching me as the chair rolled by at an alarming speed. As it turned out, neither she nor the chair nor anything else was hurt. When I left her the first time she climbed on the night stand and knocked off a lamp and broke it. So now when I leave, Daisy stays in the bathroom with water and a nice comfy rug and everything stays safe. Yesterday, she jumped on the bed and climbed on the pillows, hung herself over the wooden headboard,
parted the curtains and was looking out the window. Daisy loves to be outside but when not on a leash she runs constantly and covers 4 acres so fast that there's no way I could even thinking of catching her. If I wait long enough, somethiing will happen that will slow her down long enough to catch her. This has taken as long as an hour and 45 minutes and she's been running the whole time.
Keep her? You bet! I can hardly wait to see what she does next.

My AAR adoption

I had made a deal with my mother and father that if i got A's and B's then i could get a dog. Of course my being an all a and b student, it wasn't that hard. Then around New Years, we went to AAR Tomball. I searched all the puppies, and even held some. I had my eyes open for any type of puppy. I had my eyes set on a cute little female puppy, but then I saw two white male puppies just come in. I felt so bad for those dogs, I even considered getting one of the white ones, but my heart was set on the female. My puppy whose name is Iris was that little tiny female puppy. Now as she comes around to her 1st birthday, I still remember that she was the very first puppy I ever held that adoption day. Of course I held more, but she just stole my heart. I am wondering about her brother and where he went. So I promise I will add some pictures of her online, and if you think you have her brother, please post his story. I just know she misses him.
