Our little Chinese Crested, Sweetie now lives with Laura. Her
new name is Izzy, short for Isabel.
Laura writes, "I love her more and more everyday. Even though she
is 9, she's my little baby. She used to sleep in her bed on my bed
and she still does, but from time to time, I wake up and there is
her little head right next to mine.
She is such a good girl and so loving. I love kissing
her soft skin. We go for walks around my complex and when we get
away from the roads, I take her leash off and boy can she run. She
always waits for me though. She runs when I first put her down and
then as soon as she knows we are close to home. The rest of the time
she just trots along sniffing everywhere.
After I got her, my daughter and I changed
her name to Isabel after the blond doctor on Grey's Anatomy - we are
big fans - everyone on the show calls the doctor "Izzy" so of course her nickname and what we call her is "Izzy" . So, it's always
"little Izzy".
There is a wonderful pet store across the street and
they all know her. We joke about not worrying about starving if
there is a crisis because she has more and better food than we do.
Once I came in alone and they said, "where's little Izzy?" She's
pretty comfortable in there. She goes right up to the big dogs. I
think that's because of Saffron, her foster's big dog.
Anyway, that's my long winded way of saying she is great, her timing
in my life is perfect, and I plan to keep her healthy and loved so
she will live a longggg time.
Thank you for bringing her into my life."
