Arrival Story: I liked Pumkin the moment I saw her. She was 5 months old then. When the basket from which she was placed was settled on the floor, she was soOOo eager to get out... She ran like crazy and then suddenly stopped in the middle of the driveway when she realized she's in a new place. We all laughed at her reaction. She was shaking nervously. I picked her up and held her close for awhile, trying to comfort her.. after a few minutes her jitters stopped and finally she realized she was home. Bio: Taking out the second "p"... Pumkin was named after the band " The Smashing Pumpkins " who was during her arrival was singing out loud on the radio. I've Been On Dogster Since:
