The life most dogs and cats lead before coming to Valley Humane Society is usually such a mystery. Flora, picked up as a stray, is no exception. There’s no doubt, however, that the almost four-year-old brindled Dachshund mix is living the life now! Flora was adopted by a family in Plymouth, CA and she is pioneering what it means to be a dog. From “rides” on the Kawasaki and swimming in the pool, to farming and excavation, Flora works hard and plays hard. Her busy schedule of vineyard romps, concerts, doggie dates and keeping track of the cats has her running in and out all day long, but at night she chows down and settles in for a little TV with the family. (Yes, she sleeps in the bed.) And of course, she finds time for occasional naps in the sun with her pal, Lulu. “We love her,” writes her new family. “She’s calm, cool and collected, as well as sweet and funny!” Flora is clearly quite a character, and we’re thrilled to see this pooch living life to the fullest.
