I can't believe mommy and daddy built us a personal doggy park! I love investigating at the bottom of the wood pile we have in there. They told us they are planning to build a teeter totter for us too (whatever that is). I also like showers & swimming.
Pet-Peeves:
Parents night out
Favorite Toy:
rope-a-bone
Favorite Food:
Popcorn
Favorite Walk:
Around our Pond
Best Tricks:
Kayaking. When I get in the water, I do not want to get out. I swim around the pond chasing dragon flies, fish, and turtles for a half hour at a time. When hot on the tail of a slow dragon fly, I bark (mom and dad say it sounds more like a gurgle).
Arrival Story:
Although Hathor and Sia love the water and sit well in the kayaks, a smaller dog seemed more appropriate, and that's why they picked me! Well, the Joplin Humane Society had many choices, but my disposition, age, and coat made me 'daddy's pick.' The fact 'mommy' fell in love with me at first sight helped daddy make his final decision.
Bio:
Listed at the Humane Society as a Beagle, but I am obviously a terrier.

I love the pond. Even when it was low and mucky because of the long drought. When it rained, I was so happy. First, because Hathor and Sia spent all their time with me. Second, the pond filled way up.
Bummer though it's so cold. The pond iced over, but I soon learned how to walk and run on the ice (I keep my feet closer together). Hathor and Sia are much heavier, so when the ice began to melt, they splashed through along the edges. That only bothered me when I forgot where they fell through 'cause then I fall through too. Mommy and Daddy made sure I stayed over the shallow areas.
Some mornings there is just ice along the edge, like earlier this week. But yesterday was sooo nice, Mommy and Daddy got their kayaks out and I got to go for a ride! Daddy has a big kayak with deck webbing that lets me walk all the way to the pointy front. I stand at the front and say, "I'm king of the world!"
