Lucky, the Dog of the Day
Name: Lucky
Age: One year old
Gender: Female Breed: Cocker Spaniel, Jack Russell mix
Home: Augusta, Georgia, USA
 
   Lucky was given to me on Valentine's Day by my boyfriend. He had always wanted a dog of his very own but he could never have one because his step dad wouldn't allow him to keep one in the house. We started looking around and we asked my mom if I could have a dog, she said no for a while because we had "too many pets" to begin with (we have a dog and three cats) but we kept looking anyway. I always wanted a Cocker Spaniel and my boyfriend had always wanted a Jack Russell. His mom saw a sign for free puppies at the neighborhood pharmacy and gave us a call. We called the couple and went and took a look at the puppies. Lucky was the cutest of the little pups and we knew we just had to have her. I called my mom to try and talk her into it. We explained it all to her and she agreed. We couldn't take her home for three more weeks because she wasn't old enough to be taken from her mother. We were so excited we could barely stand it. That night we went and got her a collar and a leash and everything else we thought she needed. Three weeks later, Valentine's Day, we went and got her and she has been a part of our family ever since. She and my cat even bathe each other.
