Lucy at 4 weeks of age was found abandoned with her
brother and brought into the care off the Feilding SPCA where
she was fostered by the late Judy Leach.
I saw Lucy's photo in the paper while I was at work and I
thought about her for 2 days. I rang up & was told that
someone else was interested in her but if they hadn't
contacted the SPCA by that night I could meet Lucy. They
didn't contact the SPCA so we were able to see Lucy. My
husband & I met Lucy for the first time at Judy's house. We
fell in love with Lucy, the wee sweetie, & decided then &
there to adopt her. We already had 2 dogs, both rescued from
terrible situations, and 2 cats, also with backgrounds of
neglect & wondered how they would
accommodate a new-comer, all being settled, spoilt and set in
their ways! Anyway after a few days of adjustment they all
settled together and have become very good companions. Lucy
loves Morris, one of the cats, and they sleep together and are
always found in each other's company. Dinks, our Blue Heeler,
felt that Lucy needed some serious mothering & set to work
looking after her! Bentley, the Peke, who is the boss of the
household, accepted Lucy after some serious contemplation &
the realization that she was here to stay!
Lucy is the most wonderful dog & we love her to
bits...she is easy to train, keen to please and has a loving
personality. She loves going with us on camping trips & is a
keen fisher-dog enjoying the odd bit of pilfered bait!
Thank you to Judy for being such an awesome foster mum
for Lucy & giving her such a loving & stable start & to the
staff of the SPCA.
Keep up the good work
Dianne
