Sun Sign:  Quick Bio:
 Birthday: August 16th 1997
 Likes: Sleeping... eating

Pet-Peeves: He's skittish around puppies and overly active dogs

Favorite Toy: Squishy, fur thing

Favorite Food: Nutro - we're on a diet - or food from Red Bandana

Favorite Walk: Around bushes, on grounds with lots of smells, around the river

Best Tricks: Sit, stay, come, paw, down, "wait a minute" and DANCE

Arrival Story: Neighbor's dog had puppies - they didn't want to keep them - at 5 weeks old, they wanted to dump the puppies. I never owned a dog in my life but when I saw Sydney, the runt of the litter, I fell in love. He looked like a mini teddy bear.

Bio: He was born in Atlanta but has lived in California and Florida. He seems to favor climates that aren't so warm because he has very thick fur. His mama was Shepherd/Keshond mix, but the daddy is unknown...
On April 4, 2010, I had to take Sydney to the emergency vet and under their guidance, I had to have him put to sleep. He had been suffering from Rimadyl poisoning for many months, amongst other things, and was very sick. I just couldn't allow him to suffer any longer. It pained me so to lose him. I still mourn for him, even though I have a new dog. I have Sydney's cremated ashes on my shelf with a paw print, cards and some of his fur as a memorial to him. If you want, you can read more about what happened here - http://www.hillarymeister.com/pets /sydney/.
Sydney was almost 13 years old.

Forums Motto: I would Meow-wow-wow if I could.

Best At: Protecting his mommy - he's a great watch dog!

I forgot to mention in my last post that I had a nice shave. I always feel so much lighter and quicker on the paws after all that fur gets chopped off. I also look like a puppy and at my age that's a good thing!

I've just been chillin'. Gettin' old is for the birds, truly. My leggies are a bit sore these days and it's tough going up and down the stairs. But other than that, I enjoy my walks and the chance to sniff out everything. When the days are cool I love laying around outside, watching people and their doggies go by. I get all waggy when they come to say 'hello.'

My mom just bought a cute little townhouse. It has hardwood floors. It'll be fun to hear my toenails clacking on the floors. There's also a nice courtyard where I can lay around and a DOG PARK! near by! I cannot wait to see the dog park! Maybe I'll make new friends and have new doggy buddies to play with.
