Well I started this blog today because I am missing my dogs!!People that do not love dogs don't understand this.I have been away from my dogs a month now.Not because I wanted to.I had to come to SC to look after an elderly aunt andnshould be going home in a few days- I hope!!!!
I have three dogs-two cocker spaniels-a male named Casey and a female named Lacey and a Brittany Spaniel named Brittany.Brittany is almost 12 now.I had a little dog named Annie when I moved to Michigan.She lived for 14 years and I had to have her put down which devastated me.I still after all this time have not gotten over that.Well about the time Annie died Brittany was born.My good friend raised Brittanies and when she found out my Annie had died she gave me pick of the litter.It took me a while to bond with her because it had been so soon after Annie but she is a beautiful, smart and gentle dog.I love her dearly.She has been to obedience school 3 times- head of her class BUT---- at home she has a mind of her own!She is very smart and knows what she is doing.She obeys me to a point but if she sees something that interests her she runs-that is why she is always on a leash when I take her out.I have a fenced in area where the dogs can run and play.sometimes Brittany will run from the fence to the back door off leash.Well one day I had taken the 2 Cockers in and thought Brittany was behind me.I turned around and she was running up the road!!Well I took off after her.My house mate saw me so got in her car and picked me up.Brittany had run off into the field behind the house so we go driving thru the field in Connie's little Tracker.It had been raining so the car got stuck in the mud and Brittany kept running toward the woods.I finally caught her-all muddy with cockleburrs in her fur.Got her in the car and it took us 30 minutes to get the car unstuck!!I was so glad to get her till I couldn't scold her.
Will write more of Brittanie's adventures later.
