Mia … what can I say about Mia ? She’s manic, fizzy, completely bonkers but also loving caring and sensitive, she is the dog you want around when you’re feeling ill or just down a bit. Mia will quietly walk up to you and if you’re sitting down she will put her head in your lap and love you unconditionally you will feel better very quickly.
Mia came into to our life about 8 years ago she was a manic 2 1/2 year old, super fit and must be the only Goldie with a ripped body, not one ounce of fat and willing to take on any challenges. Talking about challenges whilst on our trips / short holidays to Shell Island Mia would streak across the beach and lunge herself into the sea, which could be like a mill pond or be foaming and angry. Mia would tackle it all we have videos of her chasing a ball over 6 foot waves and would always bring the ball back.
Mia and Poppy shared our lives until Poppy sadly went over the Rainbow bridge in 2015, for a while Mia had us to ourselves and all was happy until….
Darcey arrived
Darcey was a few weeks old puppy and full of life, we wondered how Mia would welcome this bundle of fur and energy. We shouldn’t have worried Mia in her typical hi energy way instantly bonded with Darcey and played with her all day she never tired of the play and neither did Darcey, it was lovely to watch them play and grow together. Mia and Darcey shared everything all the adventures, I’m sure Mia taught Darcey to swim and they soon both raced each other into the surf to swim together.
At present they’ve been together for about 4 and a half years and sadly over this time Mia has got that bit older and slowed down. Darcey keeps wanting to play and is only just beginning to undertstand that her soul mate is too old to play the way they used to BUT Mia still can swim well enough to keep up with Darcey. .
We love Mia so much and she is still the manic monster when it comes to meal times. We wouldn’t have her any other way. She’s a rare manic Goldie
