What is it about me and dogs?

My story starts when I was about 2 years old. That’s when I first showed a passion for dogs. One of my first words was dog and I was always pointing at them from my buggy From there, I started a collections of cuddly toy dogs all with different names, shapes and sizes. Then when I was about 6 years old my mum bought me a head scarf that had a very special dog on it. His name – Snoopy. He wasn’t hugely popular then, my friends had never heard of him. But for me it was love at first sight. We managed to find a Snoopy alarm clock in Holland and I have brought back an ornament from Italy. It’s easier to buy clothes and accessories with him on here in the UK. He’s cool. I now have the cuddly toys of Snoopy and Woodstock and my mum managed to buy me a book from a second-hand shop. I am 11 now so he is not just an image and a toy but a dog with a great personality. In the cartoons he’s funny, loyal, clever, cute and a little bit human. I am old enough to understand the cartoons now. Snoopy is always going to be a big part of my life.
