Four year ago we lost our beautiful lurcher Toffee. We were devastated! We decided not to replace him and true to my word we didn't get another dog. We had rabbits liquorice and Bean a Guinea pig Noah all very much loved. Various birds but not a dog............That is till my sister phoned me one day to tell me she had a little dog she was looking after.Her owner an elderly lady couldn't manage her. She had spent most of her six month of life inside the house. I was adamant that i wasn't going to have another dog!! I refused to visit Jackie i didn't want to see her!! My sis was looking after her for two weeks, one day she sent a picture to my phone. There she was , a beautiful fluffy West Highland White terrier.....We were in love !! We bought our little dog who was named Penny. Two year on she has grown into a beautiful dog. Nothing like Toffee or my greyhounds i owned over the last thirty year, shes a typical terrier so I'm told. Into everything, strong willed, cheeky and loving!! I never thought i could replace my beautiful brindle boy but Penny has filled an enormous gap ,we love her , for all her faults ....she has many! She hates the postman, the next door neighbour , most men ,motorbikes ,most other dogs ,the curtains, yes the curtains!! the letterbox and beards! But we love her!!
Thats toffee above .......and Penny who at this moment is growling like crazy as Sean as he trys to sit on the sofa!!!
