About a week ago four new people came to visit me! Let me explain: I was rescued by some nice English people who found me wandering on the road in the department of Lot et Garonne and took me to the Phoenix Association, who take in lost and abandoned animals in and around the Dordogne area. We are then put on their website for people who are looking for pets and who will hopefully look after us better than we were before being found.

Phoenix foster us out to nice people in the area, so that we are used to other animals and people before we go to our permanent homes. I ended up with Shirley and Dave who were very kind and looked after me really well.

And so to tell you a little bit more about myself: nobody quite knows what breed I am, but I have been told that there is a lot of English setter in me. It must be my beautiful face, silken long ears and my spotty coat! I'm only a baby, they think I was born around 18th of July, so I am only 6 or seven weeks old!

Anyway, when my prospective permanent people came to visit I made sure I was on my best behaviour. I am quite good at looking really cute and I'm sure I succeeded with all the ''Aaahhh's' and
Ooh, what a sweetie's' I was hearing!' Job done! They wanted me! And they said they were coming back in a week's time to collect me!
