Tammi, the Dog of the Day
Name: Tammi
Age: Three years old
Gender: Female Breed: Black Labrador Retriever
Home: Natick, Massachusetts, USA
 
   My name is Tammi, I am three and I love my family! My owners picked me up from the shop on 09/19/05. I remember it like it was yesterday.

    I was sitting in my pen laying down. The dogs beside me were noisy. I wanted to say something. But I couldn't because I was sick. I was tired and I had a cough. So while I lay down on the ground, another couple of people came in and started looking around for a dog to bring in. As the two looked around the shop, a little girl came straight toward me. She yelled, "Daddy! I want this one! Look at how calm she is!" I got up so they could see me better. The father came over and told this girl to keep looking around. but the girl refused. The dad gave in and they both bought me. It was the best day of my life. That day, my owner was sitting in the back of her truck with me. She and her dad kept throwing out names. When this girl said "Tammi!" I looked at her desperately. I loved that name!

    While time passed, my owners figured out some of my favorites. For example, they found out that my favorite color is purple, and my favorite animal is elephants. My owner, Shelby, who is now eleven, has become my best friend. I love to sleep with her at night and lick her face in the morning.

    My personality is very energetic. I am also lovable because I love anyone I meet. And 99% of the time they love me!

    Tammi's mom here: I know that Tammi's favorite animal is an elephant because when we were shopping for toys and she always would pick out elephants that squeaked, so we are guessing that elephants are her favorite animal. Also, her favorite color is purple because she always seems attracted to purple items. Tammi's favorite activities are probably eating and playing frisbee. She is definitely not the frisbee master, but she's getting there!
