If there's room in your home they'll find room in your heart
The Poppy Effect

An old girl makes an old man cry…

by | May 21, 2024

This is definitely one of my favourite posts to write so far. And I don’t care if people here me get choked up in my voice it was pure joy to see this.

Poppy has been getting more and more playful over the last few months and I’ve seen her seem more and more genuinely happy.

She jumps about like a Puppy most times when we go for a walk because she’s getting so excited.

 

But then today something happened on a walk that despite all the improvements I’ve seen, still managed to take me by surprise.

And yes, yes towards the end of the video you can hear my voice choke up but I don’t care one bit. It was unbridled joy to see this and it might not seem like much to the watcher, but when I’ve seen her spend a few months come out of her shell then this was just amazing to see.

I hope you enjoyed it too

Yep this is the Poppy Effect in full swing. I've seen Poppy change so much over the last couple of months she's more playful & bouncy & seems to be getting younger every day. But today, something happened that took me by complete surprise.

Hi, I’m Scott. Thanks for checking out The Poppy Effect site. In November 2023 I took on a 13yo Springer Spaniel that needed a home. At the time I thought it was the right thing to do and didn’t think there’d be much to it. Well, suffice it to say I was completely unprepared for the effect she’d have on me. So stick around and take a look hopefuly after a while you might feel The Poppy Effect too x
