It’s been 3 years since we adopted our little Princess, making her 6 years old now (though you certainly wouldn’t know it & she’ll always be my ‘little’ Molly)!
Princess Molly
It’s been an eventful year for Molly. In May she was ‘guest of honor’ at our wedding, proving that (save for trying to eat the confetti!) she really could behave like a little angel, at least for one day

the confetti proved irresistible
Her ‘modelling career’ really took off as well, when my Mum started knitting house coats to donate to charity…

She welcomed not one but six foster dogs into our home & helped them on their way to forever homes of their own.

& in between all this activity, she still found plenty time to do a little relaxing…
… & get up to a little mischief!
taking counter surfing to a whole new level!
& I thought it was cats that liked to hide in boxes!
In November, Molly very sadly lost her ‘big brother’, Max. The pair had been together for the whole 3 years she was with us, & complemented each other perfectly: Max was a calming influence on Molly, teaching her manners around other people & dogs; Molly introduced fun into Max’s life, taught him how to play & the joy of affection.
Molly had never been an only dog & we felt it was important for her to have continuing companionship after losing Max. With this in mind we soon fostered 2 young male greyhounds, Sandy & Dennis. The three of them got on so well, we quickly decided to adopt them.

Molly has really taken to her ‘little brothers’, & seems to have adapted well to her new role as ‘top dog’. I never thought I’d see the day when my crazy little Molly was the one teaching other dogs how to behave, but she’s doing a smashing job so far.
Obviously with the boys being new we are spending a lot of time & energy on their training & socialisation etc. However, I think it’s important to make sure Molly doesn’t feel left out of all this so have been trying to include her as much as possible. I have also decided to try some agility work with her so we have something which is for just the two of us, so watch this space…!
looking forward to another year with my girl
Happy anniversary Molly-moo – you’ll always be my special little girl!
