MeadowMist NB Willow Twig

Twiggy was the first born in Oopsy Daisy's first litter and weighed in at 1 pound. She immediately became a house baby but started taking a bottle by her second day and has never looked back. There is much resemblance between Twiggy and her granddam MeadowMist PE Cookie Monster who was also a tiny baby who terrorized our house during her early months. Twiggy is already the veteran of 2 shows and 2 hotel rooms due to her frequent feeding schedule but perhaps she will make her actual showring debut later in the summer. We had our naming theme after apple varieties this year. After mulling over countless options we discovered that Willow Twig is an important heritage apple variety that was used to make many of today's most popular apples. I had a feeling that Twiggy would be an important producer in our herd someday as well…until I ran over her with my car! Luckily the ground was soft so she survived. She did break the head of her femur and some ribs. The vet initially wanted to amputate her leg but we held out to see how she would do. So she still lives in the house and is horrendously spoiled. She identifies as a dog and is mostly housebroke (except when she is mad). It looks like she will be able to keep her leg but I do hope she can start to transition outside if spring ever gets here.
