Mona, the Dog of the Day
Name: Mona
Age: Five years old
Gender: Female Breed: Labrador Retriever mix
Home: Mississauga, Ontario, Canada
 
   Mona was rescued from an Animal Rescue group that my sister worked for in the Summer of 2007. At the time Mona was about a year, and almost two years old. Since the day she came to live with us, she has been a real blessing to add to our family. She's sweet, gentle, smart, loving, caring, enthusiastic and extremely playful. The day I saw her, I knew she would be a great new friend for me, and for our other dog, Samantha. Samantha is my first dog and is about eight years old. She had been an "only dog" until the day we got Mona, and now the two of them can't stop playing with each other! They both love their long walks, cuddles and treats! They are both also similar breeds, Mona is part Labrador Retriever but we're not sure what she is mixed with. Samantha is a Labrador Retriever, Border Collie and a mix of something else. Both are also rescues.

    Mona is a spunky character, she will always run laps around the house when she gets excited, which wasn't much help when we moved from Sarnia to Mississauga in March. Mona will do anything for her treats: sit, shake, roll over, circle, jump, "cross paws" and even play dead. She also does the task of practically jumping on Samantha to get her treat first. In the summer Mona loves to relax in the sun, splash and run around in the sprinkler, swim in the pool and splash around in her little "dog pool". She likes getting everyone wet when she shakes, but it's all the fun of it! She also loves to hike in the forests in any kind of weather, she loves the adventure and all the new sights and smells. She loves going to the lake or beach, just to swim and meet new people and dogs! And at the end of the day, she loves cuddling up on the couch and watching TV or playing with her toys, then comes up to bed with me and Samantha and sometimes practically falls asleep on my face!

    Mona and I are learning a lot from each other. She's such a sweet girl, and I am thankful to have her with our family!
