After I gave my dog Shelley to my ex-husband, I really missed having a dog!

I missed the companionship of having a dog around the house, to greet me when I come home, to take walks with, and just to be with. Also, I noticed that I was getting out of shape, because I was no longer taking my twice daily walks!

I decided to get a new dog. I started visiting the Humane Society shelter near me, and the second time I visited, I saw the cutest puppy! Not only was she cute, but she was very smart! I could tell by her eyes, how she watched everything and seemed to understand what was going on. And she was full of life and fun. I just fell in love with her whole personality.

She was scheduled to be spayed the next day, so it was a few more days before I could take her home. Finally, about two weeks ago, I got to take her home. They had named her Rascal (she was a stray so they did not know her real name). But I don’t really like that name. I named her Bunny. The name seems to fit her, since she likes to jump around and she is very quick. And, did I mention, cute?

My life has been very different now that I have Bunny. She is six months old, so like a little kid, I have to watch her every minute, to make sure she is not doing something she shouldn’t. I take her on a lot of long walks to use up some of her energy. And we play around in the house too, because this puppy sure has a lot of energy! She wears me out, but it is such fun.

Right now, she has worn herself out, and is taking a short nap. I am sure she will wake up refreshed and ready to go again!

I almost forgot to mention how she chose me, though. When I walked in to the Humane Society, she spied me right away, and started jumping around and acting cute, just begging me to come over to her. She stole my heart right then! I think she did it on purpose, too.
