She was a Staffeeee. No yellow feathers and whatnot, but she did have some fancy dance moves!

I put a call out on my Facebook page for a medium-sized red dog to model a collar for the Ruthless Leather website. I asked for a Viszla or a Stafford, but I was open to other breeds. I also said the dog needed to live near me or be willing to travel. Lola’s owner answered excitedly that she had a red Staffy and she was happy to travel down from the Blue Mountains with her. I thought she was a bit mad to drive so far, but I’m so grateful that she did. Lola is such a great little dog. So good she’s bumped Angel off the top spot as my favourite Staffy! [Sorry Angel but you did just spew on the carpet again and then tunneled under the deck when I put you outside. Sigh.]

Like another two dogs that I know, Lola’s a little ball mad! Even though she had her own ball to play with, when that was put away to give her a chance to catch her breath, she went off and sniffed out an old tennis ball that’s seen better days and rolled around chewing on it! Her obsession came in handy when I needed her to stand still for collar photos! Look at the little paw lift, tooooo cuuuuute! [The slobbery piece of grass hanging out of her mouth, not so much maybe!]

Thanks Cally for making the big trek, it was really lovely to meet you both.
