Hey, my name is Naisha and I am 11 years old. In 2020 we were stuck in lockdown in our farmhouse 3 hours away from Mumbai. There was nothing to do there because we were literally in the middle of a forest. We were there for 5 MONTHS in total. After 2 months we started getting bored and one day as we were walking around we noticed a litter of puppies. My brother and I started begging our parents to let us get them. They were the cutest things!! They already had Amazing manners!! There was a little cave type thing and there was a water pipe that was in front of it. Whenever they needed to do their business they stepped outside did it and came back in. They were also jumping on top of each other and playing. They were so small they looked like toys. They did not look real!!
When we reached home our parents called a cow doctor. He was the only vet around. He did not know much about dogs but said he could maybe help. We asked him if we could keep the dogs and about the vaccines and everything. He said that he would go see the dogs and the mother. Turns out there were 2 litters. One mother had 5 and the other had 4. Once he went there he said he gave the mother a few vaccines to make sure she remained healthy and told us the dogs were ready. My brother and I could hardly wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The day finally came!! We packed a big carton and some milk, biscuits and bowls. Once we reached there a few of the puppies were scared of us and a few wanted to play. They really liked the milk and biscuits. We initially wanted to adopt 2 males because they would be easier to handle but landed up getting 2 females. I chose a brown and white one and Aayush (my brother) chose a black one. On the car ride back home we were deciding names. I thought 'Daisy' was a good idea but my chachu (Siddharth) who knows a lot about dogs suggested the name 'Donna'. I LOVED the name!!!! For the other dog, we wanted to name it after a food item. My brothers favourite food was Pancakes so 'Pancake' was the name. Donna and Pancake were ours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As soon as we reached back we started deciding where they were staying and working out all the logistics. Just like that our days were full of fun and laughter and cuddles and them following us everywhere. It was an AMAZING experience!!
The First Day We Had Them!!
