Baby Girl Dog, the Dog of the Day
Name: Baby Girl Dog
Age: Eight months old
Gender: Female Breed: Lab Mix
Home: Slidell, Louisiana, USA
 
   Hi, my name is Baby Girl Dog, also known as "BG". Somebody dropped me on the doorstep of the Animal Hospital (actually threw me over the fence) when I was just a little pup. My Dad, who had recently lost his longtime friend who was also a black lab, saw me in a Pet Rescue announcement, and said he fell in love at first sight. He adopted me when I was about seven weeks old. Then I got very sick. I had Parvo and almost died. My vet, Dr. Jeff, pulled me through, but I was weak for awhile.

    But now I'm well and have grown a bit as you can see from my picture. Dad and I love to play Frisbee and catch with a tennis ball. I can catch anything thrown anywhere near me. I can run all day and nobody can catch me unless I want them to. Right now Dad says I'm getting socialized and learning some basic stuff like walking on a lead, sit, stay, and come. He says I'm a fast learner and is going to enroll me in Fido school to get a good education. I want to try out for the agility team. Obedience is kind of boring. I have a great home now with a bunch of people who love me. I have fights with the hose once in a while, and I really don't like vacuum cleaners too much, but I like all people, through I still like to jump up on them and I have to admit I still like to chew a shoe once in awhile. Dad says that's puppy stuff and will pass when I get a little older.
