Sure, she's got issues. Who doesn't? We're working on them. But she's got her forever home now and she knows it!

Poodle encounter

Maybe Daisy didn't get enough sleep last night. We were walking home from the beach this morning at about 8:30 a.m. when we looked up and our neighbor was nearly upon us, gliding up the hill on her bike. Well-geared under a helmet and sky-blue riding pants, she also had two leashes in hand. One was attached to a small white poodle, the other to a beige pseudo-Labradoodle. Oh no! The occupants behind the fence! They are the source of much barking, snuffling, sniffing, and on our side, crying and fence-pounding. Mary (the rider) kept going, head down and determined. Mary was on the other side of the fence that time Daisy crashed through.

Daisy saw the trio coming and... just watched them go by. No leaping, yanking, screeching or heavy breathing. Tom and I stood there, in shock. She stood with us. Then we all turned and walked up the hill toward home.
