Aw Katt, that is great news!

I am truly delighted for you! I can clearly remember you loss in December. I remember how you described how much you loved your dog & what a good companion he/she was. Your description of your dog sitting beside you with his/her head on your knee looking up at you really stuck with me. I'm a dog lover aswell & i know the bond that one can have with a dog. Also with the freezing cold weather last December & the drought was at its very worst, & then xmas only around the corner it was a tough time for you to go through something as awful as that.
But you have a new puppy now!! :D

:D That is brilliant news!! & what a lucky puppy having you to look after her & giving her such a loving home!! Willow is a gorgeous name! I'd say a border collie/spaniel mix is beautiful! What colour is she? Is she big? Will you post a photo? I'd love to see her!!
Dogs are great company, its great during the day & in the summer evenings going walking with your dog, i'm always out walking my dog, it gets me out of the house, if it wasn't for my dog i would probably just go to work & then come home & stay home until i go out for work again the next day, its great to have a reason to get out & about! & then at night time a dog is great security, so its all good!!
You must be thrilled Kkat!! It must be so exciting in your house to~night!! Enjoy your new found friend & keep us posted on how she is getting on!! Post a photo if you can!!!!
