What is your pet’s name?
Roxie.
What is the breed of your pet?
Rescued, 16 pounder, Cockapoo.
How was your pet’s name chosen?
Granddaughters thought it fit because she had a feisty “attitude.”
Does your pet have a favorite walking route?
Despite having invisible fence around our home in Fords Colony, Roxie grew up in a Connecticut condo and still insists on being walked in the neighborhood twice a day to “read the newspapers featuring other dogs’ activities.”
What’s the most embarrassing thing your pet has ever done?
Roxie likes to look in ladies’ purses and did that with our Minister’s wife when visiting and came out with a $20 bill… soon returned with apologies.
Does your pet have a pet peeve? If so, what is it?
Roxie takes exception to squirrels having free reign in her property so chases them out, “hey you squirrels, get off my lawn!”
If your pet could answer any question, but just one, what would you ask?
What happened that caused you to be abandoned by your first parents who tied you to a tree at the Local Connecticut dog shelter?
