Lisa

 

My name is Lisa aka Godiva.  I’m now 6 months old and growing more than expected!

Apparently I’m a lab x, but the more I grow people say I must have shepherd in me.  I’m quite long in the back and have a great long tail which is fun to chase.  ‘They’ laugh at me because I can’t control my ears – one or the other just stands up unexpectedly and I guess I do look rather funny. 

I’m writing to tell you that I’m fine and really am a very lucky dog, as ‘they’ keep informing me.  I live on a horse farm and have learned to respect them although I’m not frightened by them.  I love eating horse ‘poop’ and rolling in the stuff which annoys the 2 legged ones around here.  I love playing with the barn cat, Thomas, who is not scared of me and who just bats me when I get too rambunctious.  As I said, I have it pretty good here – I run around when ‘they’ are outside and come inside when they do, but I’m allowed to stay out on my own as long as I don’t stray too far.  I am trying to be good about it, honestly. I’m allowed inside the house, but not upstairs.  I do have a nice bed of my own not far from the wood stove, which I don’t have to share with anyone.

I have 2 ‘cousins’ one of which came from you too.  They are older and bigger, but they have taught me a lot about respecting my elders.  After a visit from them, I’m exhausted but in a good kind of way.  This snow stuff is great fun.  I can jump, roll, dig and everyone just laughs at me.  ‘They’ X-C ski and I love attacking their skis which is not popular; in fact I love attacking brooms, hose pipes, vacuums, snow shovels -  I love disrupting ‘their’ work.  The lab side of me loves to carry things and fetch balls or sticks and I loooove my food.

Happy New Year.

Until the next time,

Lisa
