Allie, the Dog of the Day
Name: Allie
Age: Five months old
Gender: Female Breed: Australian Shepherd
Home: West Deptford, New Jersey, USA
 
   Allie is my dream dog. She came to us by luck right as we lost our two Sibes. I have always had a love/passion for the breed. I was having a rough time in my life after just getting over a medical "issue" that was devastating to my fiancé and myself we decided it best to have a dog... a companion to share our home with and help me get over my surgery. I picked Allie out of a litter of five. We bonded instantly and have been together ever since. When I am not at work she is my shadow and my constant companion. She follows me everywhere I go no matter where it is (bathroom, kitchen, bedroom) and sits or lays next to me at all times...being as close as she can be to me. She gives me love when I feel sad and always seems to know how to change my moods. If I'm crying she knows what to do to make me smile and if I'm tired or in an irritated mood (being a woman that's at least once a month) she lays next to me and puts her head in my lap...being quiet and calm, casually licking my hand ever so often to let me know she's there. If I'm laughing and smiling about something she's bouncing all over the place with her cute wiggly butt wagging back and forth and she seems to be almost smiling when as her tongue dangles from her mouth. I don't know what I would do without her. I couldn't imagine life without her. Her intelligence is amazing...her compassion is never ending and her personality is unmatchable. She makes even my dullest day seem sunny and gorgeous.
