Daisy

Well we found out our surprise visitors name is Daisy. DH decided to call the Sheriff last night, to find out if they had gotten any calls about a missing dog, and as it turns out (strangely) the lady who took his call used to own her! They had given her to someone who lived out our way, because their neighbors had complained about her going outside and howling. Least that's what I think DH said, as he is the one who talked to her.

We had heard a few weeks ago, that some people who lived a mile or so away from us, had moved, and left their dogs to fend for themselves, we had seen one of them over here, but it wouldn't come close to us. The thought had crossed our minds, that Daisy could be another of their dogs, but we didn't know if she was or not. I don't understand people who would do that, I would have to find a home for them or something, not leave them to starve, although she can't have been having no food for THAT long, cause while she may be thinner, than she usually is, she isn't skin and bones!

So I guess the lady who used to own her, and/or her boyfriend, will be coming out tonight to pick her up. Not sure if they plan on keeping her, or what, I do know I'm glad they are, cause as lovable as she is, I would like to sleep at night, last night I didn't get to bed till midnight, cause I was working on some things, and then at 4 Autumn (who doesn't like her) barked, cause she heard her walking around the dinning room. So after trying to get more sleep, but constantly being woke up by a bark, I gave up, and got up and did these two layouts of Daisy! LOL

Daisy doesn't like being left alone. Poor thing cries even when I'm around her some, cause she isn't used to it here, but she is really bad when she is alone. Its probably cause she doesn't know the place, and because she was abandoned, and doesn't want to be again. I can't get her to go outside for any length of time, unless I go with her, again probably because she doesn't want left. Makes me feel so sorry for her, and hope that if her former owners can't keep her, they can at least find a good home for her. The poor thing has had a hard last several months I would say, and she doesn't seem to be really to old, although how old, I have no idea. I doubt much over a year or two, if that, but I'm not good at figuring that out.

We didn't let her sleep in our bedroom last night, because Autumn doesn't like her, and keeps snapping and snarling at her. So figured it wouldn't be a good idea for them to have to be in the same room, especially since we aren't keeping her! LOL However that of course made her be alone, which she doesn't like, so I felt kinda mean. She is just a sweet lovable hound, although slightly annoying with her crying, even though I understand it, cause she doesn't know us, or the place. She has taken over the dog bed in my office, which is fine, cause ours don't use it lots, especially in the winter, cause DH's office is warmer. Its not really her size, but she uses it anyway! LOL

Well I better get this posted, and get some other things done!! I hope you all have a great week, and hope I can managed several more layouts this week!! LOL Thanks so much for all of your comments, both here and through e-mails!!

  3. How very sad about Daisy. People can be so cruel & heartless. Hopefully she will get a good home. You did a lovely job on the LOs and the journaling is terrific.

    How sad. I get really angry when people dump animals. Even if you have to put them down, that is much better than dumping them and hoping someone will take them in.. grrr.
