One Amazing Pooch

I know it' s been a while since I last posted and there really is a ton to catch up on, but I couldn't not blog about our wonder dog's birthday. That's right yesterday was Ms. Daisy Diggs birthday. She is officially four years old and has been with our family for three of those years. She is the perfect addition to our family and a wonderful friend. She is so patient and kind to the kids. They test this theory a little too often and she always stays faithful.







Our Daisy loves to be the center of attention and if you say her name or call her to you she is always up for a belly rub or an ear scratch, but she is also just as content to lay near by and take a little nap. She doesn't bark when people come to the door, but if she is outside she barks hello to all the other dogs, squirrels, birds or sometimes people she sees. Daisy loves the water. She is the only dog I know that enjoys a bath. If you leave the bath tub full and unattended you will find her in it. She never jumps on people, but she has been known to jump on the trampoline with the kids. When she first came to be with us she was scared to death of the car and would shake and whine anytime we took her for a ride, now she runs to the van, finds her spot and waits patiently for her trip. She loves walks and gets excited at the sight of my tennis shoes or her lease, but she would prefer to go running. She never poops on our walks or runs, so there is no need for me to carry a baggie. Daisy is a beautiful dog and she loves us, which she shows us everyday. Not even Mark can deny her charms. Though she does equal extra work she is worth it. WE LOVE YOU DAISY!
