Peppa Princess
Peppa Princess was a pure bred Lhasa Apso (pronounced La-Sa App-So) who hailed from Northern Ireland. She was a sweet little rescue I met while over in Ireland acquiring Gemma and Gracie. While Peppa was not one of our breeding dogs, she was very much part of the family, and got spoiled maybe even more than the others as a result of her "humble beginnings". She came with the name "Peppa" but we couldn't leave her without a middle name. So, as a nod to the Monarchy, and because we believed she should be treated as royalty, we gave her the middle name "Princess"!
When we met her she was underweight, had ear infections, intestinal worms, was in serious need of dental work, and was afraid to even jump up into the car or go up stairs. Within her first month with us she gained 1.5 lbs, had all her infections cleared and worms treated, dental work looked at, and was happily jumping up into the car to run errands with her fur Mama!
Sadly, on November 24, 2023 we had to say "goodbye" to our food-lovin', vacuum-belly-rub craving, nearly toothless girl. Her poor little body was giving out, she was in a lot of pain, and her quality of life had diminished substantially, so we made the incredibly difficult decision to say goodbye to her.
One of the things we loved most about Peppa is that from moment one she began "mothering" all of our other dogs, cleaning them, caring for them, and playing with them! She was a sweet, tender soul who brought so much joy and warmth to our home - we won't be the same without our little Peppa Princess!
All our love, sweet girl! We miss you everyday, but we know we'll see you again!! Don't eat ALL of Heaven's sardine treats before we get there!
