Name: Fiona
Age: Two years old
Gender: Female Breed: Pug

   Hi. My name is Princess Fiona Apple but my Mom and Dad call me Fiona. I'm glad my last name is Apple because I love to eat the apples that fall from my tree in the back yard. How did my Mom know this? I guess she's smart. I just turned two years old on August 1st. My favorite thing to do is to steal my Dad's socks. I grab a sock and then go find my Dad so he can see what I've done and chase me around the house. It is lots of fun!

    I live with my Mom and Dad and my two kitty friends Shawnee and Elizabeth. Elizabeth and I are the best of friends and we play together all the time. Shawnee is too old to play but that's ok. Another fun thing that I love to do is hop into the bathtub and then whimper until my Dad comes to help me get out. (Mom and I have a secret. I can get out by myself but I like it when my Dad comes to help me). I am very lucky that my Mom walked into the store where I lived and fell in love with me at first sight. I knew she would be my Mom when I saw her because I sat still like a good puppy and stared hard at her. I went home with her that very day.

    After Mom brought me home she had me spayed and found out that I have hip displaysia. I guess the people who bred me and the other puppies where I came from did not care about who our Moms and Dads were. They were just trying to get cute puppies. I sure am cute but I wish my hips were healthy. Mom tells me it's okay because she will always take good care of me and also Mom has learned that she should have bought me from a reputable breeder (Mom's not sorry she has me, she just wants the bad breeding practices to stop). But, like I said, I am the luckiest girl around and my Mom and Dad feel that I am the most special little girl in the world.
