PRINCESS
Prologue
Once upon a time not so long ago, in a little cottage high in the
Dublin mountains, there was an air of excitement.
The birds were tweeting the news that something wonderful
had happened; three tiny little puppies were born. These
Cavalier King Charles puppies had silky smooth black, white
and tan coloured coats and huge big brown eyes.
There is always one puppy far better than all the others
with perfect markings! Two of them followed each other in
circles like silly sheep but one clever puppy trotted away from
them to explore the farmyard, leaving her cosy bed of hay to
breathe in the fresh smelling soft green grass on the mountains.
Mommy King Charles was a high pedigree dog so it was
no surprise that she named her most special baby Princess.
This adorable tricolour puppy was of course me!
