All in the Family

Biography: (26th Dec.1993-8th July.2010) I am a mixed breed of lots of doggies! I was adopted in 1993 when I was just a puppy from our local RSPCA. I go crazy over walks, and do a funny kangaroo dance when Louise says "I'll be back in 15mins!" to her mum, because I know it's time for a walk! I eat EVERY TYPE OF FOOD- except fruit. Water, shampoo, hoses, bikes, boogie boards and thunder are all scary. Whenever I see them, RUN! And I shiver like a vibrating chair! I love digging holes! One time I was really scared because Louise, my mummy put this reflection thingy which there was a dog exactly like me in it! I learned it was a mirror. I also love the bouncy thing! I learned it is a trampoline. Me and Louise bounce around on the trampoline, but she just sits and I bounce. We used to lay down on the trampoline while it was in the shade and we'd get a nice breeze and I'd fall asleep in her arms. But the last few years Louise decided that I shouldn't go back on it because I have arthritis. I love a rub in the belly and a scratch behind my ear. Louise sits with me for hours just stroking me which makes me go to sleep. I also love to put my head on her lap and use my special power on her, PUPPY EYES! It always works! So I get to have a treat. Every time mummy gets out her camera, I know what to do! Strike a pose! Louise says I'm photogenic! When my mummy used to ride her bike to school she used to leave a little bit of a gap at the bottom of the garage so I can pop my head and watch her leave. My mummy gets so amazed because when she rides back home she sees my head sticking out and I was waiting for her! She told me it made her day! My mummy measured how high I am, 50cm at the shoulders while standing, and 65cm while sitting at the head. I got weighed when I went to vet and I weighed 32kg, well I'm guess I was a bit chubby but I get SO MANY treats for being good! Any way I am a very smart doggie, I have NEVER been trained in Puppy School, and it's a bit too late to put me in there so my mum teaches me. She said that I was a VERY FAST learner. My birthday is celebrated on Boxing Day and 26th February, the same day as Louise. But we don't know when my real birthday is because I was rescued when I was a pup from the local RSPCA shelter. I was scared of all humans because before my loving family now, I had a cruel horrible owner who did bad things to make me scared of everything. (Pants couldn't walk on his back legs because all the nerves at the back of his body had died. The vet said he couldn't feel any pain because he couldn't even feel his legs! This only started in May 2010, it got worse throughout time and Pants finally gave-up on walking. Pants had to be put-down on Thursday 8th July 2010 at 12:20pm. But what makes me feel better is that he had a very long, loved and easy life.)
