Sweet Lucy

by Lisa Anderson
(Sherwood, Arkansas)

I adopted Lucy in March 2014. Her previous owner had raised her since birth, but he is married and has toddlers now and he said they were making her nervous and driving her crazy. He was sad to give her up, but wanted the best for her.

She is 6 years old and the 3rd Aussie I have owned over the years. She is very well behaved... a great house dog. She is very much a Velcro Aussie... she mostly stays on my heels, but sleeps beside my husband's side of the bed and if she needs to go out in the middle of the night for some reason, she always wakes him up!

She grins all the time and has the cutest wigglebutt! She loves to go walking, riding in the car and swimming, but she does not like thunder or other loud noises. She is a great watchdog and certainly lets us know if someone is around. She likes to herd my 4 house cats which they do not appreciate at all! I truly can't imagine our family without her.
