Likes: Food, playing tug of war with my toys, going walkies, sleeping with mummy, pottering in the garden, sitting in the sunshine, kissing mummy
Pet-Peeves: Thunderstorms, having my nails clipped and having a bath, the vacuum cleaner monster
Favorite Toy: My absolute favourite toy is my big teddy bear (it's bigger than me!). I suckle on Teddy and go to sleep on him and my plush Anty (anteater) all the time. And did someone say squeaky toys? Oh, and my tug of war rope toys and balls!
Favorite Food: Chicken, steak, peanut butter, Schmackos, toast, potato, cheese
Favorite Walk: Going to the local park, but any walkies really.
Best Tricks: Sits when you say sit, rolls over, crawling along the carpet like she's swimming freestyle in water, jumps to catch plush toys when I throw them and then spits them out at my feet so I can throw them again, blankie guerilla warfare (don't ask)
Arrival Story: I adopted her from Shenton Park Dogs' Home in Perth. She was apparently a pound rescue. How anyone could have given her up or abandoned her is utterly beyond me. It was love at first sight for me. When we did the meet and greet at the Dogs' Home, I asked her if I could pic her up and when I did she turned in my arms and licked/kissed me and I was utterly and irrevocably smitten. I was moving and had to wait a week before I could take her home, but going home day arrived and when I went to collect her and Dogs' Home staff brought her out to me I just cried, I was so happy, and so was she. She's the most beautiful little dog anyone could ever hope to adopt and it's such a privilege to be her guardian and mummy.
Bio: Pogo is a beautiful, sweet natured, very happy, friendly and playful little girl. She just loves people (especially when they make a fuss of her) and does like most other dogs. She has a very unusual habit that she's had ever since I adopted her, which is that when she sees another dog she screams. Doesn't bark; screams. It's taken quite a while to work out that while some of her screaming is in terror of other (and often bigger) dogs, sometimes it's also excitement. Because she tends to do it whenever she sees other dogs, I only take her for walks in the evening. I don't fancy waking up the neighbourhood early in the morning, lol. She's such a wonderful mix of the best of both Jack Russell and Chihuahua.
Update: It's taken us a long time to get there but Pogo no longer screams (well, hardly ever!) when she sees other dogs when we go walkies now. She's always so happy to see other dogs, especially her pals that she sees regularly at our local dog park, and her pals love to see her, racing up to welcome her if they're at the park first. She loves playing with them and is always so happy around them. It's such a joy to see how much she's bloomed in the time since we found each other. I'm so proud of my dear little sweetheart.
