What was your first impression of your dog?

Hello, Earlier I told you about choosing LilGirl puppy in Sept 08. Now I'll talk about Annie who was a stray & just appeared in the yard in May 06.

My first impression, to be honest, was to hope she would go away because I did not need or want another dog (I had a little housedog Honey) & I didnt know if she was friendly or if she would hurt Luke or Honey dog (Honey died 2008). The next day she was still here. We were outside with cat & dog when she slowly came up, stood, wagged her tail, & made no attempt to hurt anybody. She was so skinny & covered in ticks & I felt sorry for her & decided she could stay. I named her Annie for Little Orphan Annie. She's been here since May 06 & is a wonderful sweet dog & we love her. ... Kay in NC
