“She loved to play soccer in the backyard and fetch the ball,” her mum Angela said.
“She was diagnosed with diabetes and developed cataracts at age nine.
“It did not deter her from living life to the full.
“She sadly passed away on June 11, she will be missed so much.”
Hopefully Polly is enjoying an endless supply of treats and bones in doggy heaven.

Jump aboard to have a dog of a day with the Katherine Times.
In the lead up to the town’s Doggy Day 2017, we are inviting dog lovers to send us a picture of their much loved pooches.
Every day we will feature a dog of a day on our website and through social media.
In the final week of the promotion, the Katherine Times will invite readers to vote for their favourite so we can award our most loved hound a 2017 dog of the day certificate.
You can email your pictures to lydia.lynch@fairfaxmedia.com.au, Facebook message us, text 0475 989 881, or even drop a picture in to our Katherine Terrace office if you like.
Please include your dog’s name, breed and some fun facts.
Doggy Day will be held on Saturday, July 8 between 8.30-11.30am on Civic Centre lawns on the Stuart Highway.
There will be council ranger talks, market stalls and exhibitions, competitions and prizes, kids fun activities, demonstrations, dog grooming and free doggie bags.
You can register your dog for life for $125 and pay $20 for micro chipping.
