Introducing Lucy

Anonymous — Fri, 27 Jun 2014 11:20:09 GMT

This is my daughter's dog - a wired-up energy ball called Lucy. Very effectionate, very stupid and constant source of amusment (Lucy that is, not my daughter).

Nothing whatever to do with O2 - but better looking than that awful cat that lurks around the O2 site.

Ooooh, I want her! She looks absolutely gorgeous

I've never had a dog. Back in Italy, I volunteered for a few years in a rescue kennel - 180 dogs that had been abandoned, mistreated and abused. I used to say I had 180 dogs.

Very Cute @Anonymous

I've always wanted a German Shepherd dog but due to work Commitments never could give the time needed. 😞

She's lovely Gerry. Do you have any pets?

I have 2 Black Labradors. They are beautiful

Wow! You must have been exhausted looking after 180. I am sure you were heart-broken when you had to leave them!

Particularly with one. Her name was Sarah, we absolutely loved each other but I was living with my parents and my father didn't let me adopt her, so we spent as much time as we could together, she'd always be with me when I was working around the kennel or taking other dogs for walks. I was devastated when she got adopted.

On the bright side, it was amazing when dogs recognised me in town with their new owners

Beautiful! Labradors are such intelligent & gentle creatures, aren't they, @Toby ?

I don't have any pets - I just enjoy other peoples without any of the work or worry of looking after them.

I know that 😞 My Mom and I always wanted a dog, my father didn't... Last year he said we're allowed to get one, but we didn't, because the time wasn't right. Now that he died we want one, but don't have enough money. Life's not fair sometimes.
