Puppy Love on Valentine's Day

Deedee

It's embarrassing, but true - Daisy is my dog.  She loves Kim, tolerates the boys, couldn't give a crumbled Milk-Bone about the cats, but she follows me around, well, like a puppy.

She found us through Dachshund Rescue NW, not long after our previous dachshund, Sadie, passed away at 9 years old.  DRNW was having their Christmas party and we didn't go looking for a replacement, but she was adorable and we were suckers.

The story goes that she was found beside the highway, that someone had thrown her out.  My suspicion is that she jumped.  When she "GETSTOGOINTHECAR" she likes to stick her head out the window like all dogs.  (Well... like most dogs.  We'll get to Lilly one day, I'm sure).  I don't excuse the jerk who didn't stop and retriever her, but I can see a scenario where she was in the back seat with the window down just enough, and the driver not noticing her lean too far.

So on this Valentine's Day, love the people in your life, but save an extra hug for your pets.  And don't shop: Adopt!
