HOLLY - ID#A054700

Note: I originally posted this on my Facebook account on August 1st, 2009. However, Facebook is getting rid of their “notes” blog-like ability, so I’ve moved this content to my blog, with some edits for clarity.

This was my post the day after we adopted Holly from the Wake County SPCA. It is essentially copied from the SPCA pet catalog.

Original catalog text

My name is Holly, and I am a spayed female, white and brown brindle Pointer and American Staffordshire Terrier. I am 10 months old.

Hi there! My name’s Holly. One, two, three, go! Come on, let’s race! No, really! Come on! Just so you know, I’m a go-go-go kind of girl! I’m a little shy when we first meet but give me a couple of treats and a few minutes, and you’ll find me by your side in no time. I am also sweet, not to mention a cute little girl who’s looking for a family to keep up with me. Of course, I know whoever I end up with will love me and take care of me for the rest of my life. I occasionally indulge in coprophagia, but I’m sure a steady discipline will help me break this disgusting habit. I like finding new things to chew on, and my new parents will need to make sure I don’t get into anything I’m not supposed to. I will reward your patience with lots of kisses. Are you the perfect person for me? I currently weigh ~40 lbs. and should reach ~45-50lbs.
