Birthday:

Likes:
Sitting in my owner's lap. I'm happy to finally have a lap to sit in.

Pet-Peeves:
Other dogs, strange noises outside. Oh, and I don't like rain or wind outside, or for that matter, extreme cold. I could do without bath time or nail trimming as well.

Favorite Toy:
Plastic Nylabone for "power chewers"

Favorite Food:
Anything!

Favorite Walk:
Um, the princess is still learning the leash.

Best Tricks:
She's mastered "sit." She also gets this huge furrow between her brows when she looks up at you.

Arrival Story:
We were looking for a second tan and white toy fox terrier. I emailed a breeder in Louisiana, who directed me to her friend in Texas (also a TFT breeder) who had a one year old female that was not working out as a show dog. (Not serious enough, kept wagging her tail, barking, attempted to repeatedly lick the judges). After several long chats, I decided that Nina would fit in well here, and a few days later she flew out. It was love at first sight. She is a very tough dog to train, and needs a lot of attention and a low stimulus environment, but she's completely captured my heart. I feel in some ways she's my rescue dog, since not many people wanted a show dog reject or an older dog.
