He came from Bridgend and was left on a rubbish tip when he was tiny....how people can do this to animals i do not know. He came home with us a week later after having checks done on us to make sure our home was suitable for him. <br /><br />A few weeks later we decided Merlin needed some company, so we decided to get another puppy who was free to a good home because his mum couldnt feed him anymore, he was a 12 week old tri colour collie x Jack Russell apptly named Jack. He was very mischeivious and naughty but was so loving and friendly, I remember him being so small i had to bath him in the sink! <br /><br />It took a lot of getting used to having to dogs but we took them to puppy classes things like that dad would see to them when we were at college etc and i would come home to such happy tail wagging and licking.<br /><br />The dogs soon became very attached to us all as did we to them, i brought me a sense of responsiblity nd taught me how to look after something that is so dependant on your for things.EMMAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10804228762362121692noreply@blogger.com0
