She's been with us about a month now and I can't tell if the name we chose dictated her personality or fate had its own plans, but she is definitely living up to the name (sh.itjust.works)

I made the mistake of naming an Australian shepherd after Lucy- the peanuts character.

Definitely had a twerpish streak. Though she discovered very early on, her favorite sound was squealing. Particularly the high pitched squeal-laugh from a surprise ear lick. (Kids were definitely her favorite squeaky toy….)

Hah that’s great. This monster’s current favorite thing is anything that moves in the slightest. Tying my boots in the morning has become a trial of survival for me now

Maybe distract her with a toy? Redirect her hunting instincts long enough to get the shoe tied.

But honestly, she’s gorgeous, and it’s all just “personality”!
