Lucy Dog

Last summer my parents decided that they were ready to get a new dog. A Police friend of ours told Dad that he should look at getting a Britney. After spending some time on the internet and time with our friend's dog, Annie, Dad was hooked. We were getting a Britney. After finding a breeder and reserving one of the female pups, Lucy was born Dec 6, 2010. For the next two months the days were filled with discussions about Lucy, how she was doing, how she was growing, and updates from the breeder.

In Feb 5th, we made the trek to Abbotsford to pick Lucy up. The breeder was bringing her and a few other pups from Genelle BC to deliver them. Lucy was right out on the edge of the tailgate ready to meet us. The first month we lived in the kitchen with her, getting to know her and her routines and needs.

Lucy is now a rambuxious, full of energy, full of love, raring to go, calm only when she sleeps, seven month old. This past week we went camping and she loved it. We had one whole side of the lake to ourselves and she was able to run free for the four days. We discovered a meadow about 20 min away from our site that was heaven for Lucy. She was able to chase birds and butterflies, run amongst the long grass and swim to her hearts content. She has never run so fast or swam so far. Life will never be the same again, but we are loving (most) every moment.
