Arrival Story:
I saw Winry's profile on petfinder as part of the Furry Friends Network rescue group...she was half Elkhound, which caught my eye (our eldest doggie is an Elkhound). She needed donations for the surgery to remove her right hind leg, so we gave a small contribution. Over a year later, I was checking the FFN site and saw that she was STILL up for adoption and that no one wanted her. It broke my heart. We decided to rescue her and now our 4-doggie pack is complete!
Bio:

I have 3 goals for the new year:
1) Be nicer towards strangers. Away trips to Pabby's Pet Pantry have helped me in this regard, but I still have a lot to improve. Especially when it comes to the neighbors; I don't like them hanging out so close to my house!
2) Become Enkidu's walking partner. I am doing very well with this goal already. Daddy has switched the pairings for our daily walk and Enkidu much prefers strolling the neighborhood with me than with Fozzie Bear.
3) Beat Boomer ONCE in wrestling. I am getting better. The good Captain is teaching me how to position my body to block offensive moves, so I am getting better at dogdging. I still try to use my front paw to swat her though, and this leaves me off-balance and open to her counter-attack... which leaves me on the floor on my back. I need to be more patient and study her winning tactics more closely....

1) Lots and lots of TREATS
2) To "say hello" to the mailman
3) For Daddy to stop harrassing me when I am trying to sleep.... I know I am cute, but geez! You're smothering me, Daddy!
4) For Enkidu to play with me. :o(
5) For the ground to freeze in the back yard so I can run and run and run some more

I love Pabby's. Mommy has taken me there twice in the last week. Usually I am very timid and scared around strangers, and tend to nip at them if they make sudden movements (sorry!!!) but not at Pabby's. The employees are super-nice and always shower me with treats when I arrive. Not just little treats, but big fat biscuits that are like 4x the size of the ones I get at home!
Today I went to Pabby's with Mommy and Daddy and they bought me a nice new winter coat. I have a little bit of an Elkhound fur coat, but not a whole lot of undercoat (just on my hind legs, really). And I am so skinny you can see my ribs (it's the Whippet in me!). Mommy feels bad taking me on long walks in the winter because I might get cold, but now I have a sportin' tartan winter jacket, complete with the cutest scarf! I modeled it when I was at Pabby's and all the employees agreed that I was adorable!!!
