Juliet, aka . . .
Jewel
JuJu
Julie
Pumpkin Pie
turns six this month. February 20th to be exact. I can't believe it has been that long since I welcomed this little ball of love into my life, and I certainly don't know what I did without her! I mean, seriously--just look at that face!I recently came across the journal entry I wrote shortly after I got her . . .
(I'll blog about that some day!) and it reminded me of the puppy she was and how much she is still the same in so many ways. Yes, she has grown older (and a little whiter around the eyes!) but here are some things that will never change:
her ability to be playfully crazy one minute and then be totally sacked out the next!
her picky eating habits (just like her mama!)
her unconditional love and devotedness
loving to have her tummy scratched
waiting in the window seat for me to get home from school
her wagging tail--always!
this little gremlin sound she makes when she wants attention
her love of sunshine and summertime
never tiring of going for walks

how she makes an entrance, ANYWHERE, and everyone has to stop and come see her
how she loves everyone
There will be many more Juliet blogs down the line. For now, though, it is so true that a picture paints a thousand words, especially for Juliet, and I'll leave you with some of her best moments with the people who love her.
BABY PICTURES
Juliet came to us at eight weeks old from Lisa Harrison, a breeder in Missouri. http://puppyloversplace.com/default.aspx From day one, she made it clear that she was one of us, that she was absolutely in love with us, and that she was home.
