Favorite Toy: Anything with a squeeky & his laser pointer Favorite Food: Anything Dad is eating Favorite Walk: Any mountain trail or open field Best Tricks: Patty cake, high ten, being adorable Arrival Story: Petfinder.com!!!!! Duffy came to us in NH from a wonderful private rescue outside of Dallas, TX. We were checked out extensively before he was sent to us and he has been one of our greatest joys since we picked him up at the airport.
We made up a breed name for him after being asked what he was over and over again. He is now listed in all his agility meets as an "Irish Cream Terrier". There is no such breed, but people want to know where they can get one. He's "Irish" because of his name, "Cream" because of his color and "Terrier" obviously. We never get tired of telling people all about him when they ask. Duffy is one of a kind, smart, sweet, gorgeous, and funny. I guess it's his "breed standard" Bio: We were informed that Duffy was not so interested in learning and may be a "special case". He has passed his CGC and is now competing at the Masters level of agility. He is so smart and just needed the chance to show it. More than anything he is his dad's best friend.

Yup, that's me! Dad and I ran at a trial in Keene NH this weekend and only needed 20 points to my C-ATE3. The first run was a jackpot and that is distance work and I didn't feel like leaving dad's side that morning, so I passed and didn't Q. The next run was my most favorite game with Dad called Snooker. Dad picked a conservative course and we took our qualifying score and a HUGE ribbon and got to run around the ring while everyone cheered. It was pretty cool but I still like chicken better. We had a great weekend overall and I rocked lots of courses. I may be 11 but I still run like a pup.
Happy, Happy Gotcha Day to MEEEEEEEEEE!!!! 10 years ago I came home and I'm really happy I did! Today I went outside and got all muddy turning the compost and dad gave me a warm bath and lots of towel smooshes. I love that game. I met mom at the door doing my happy dance because the pack was outside and I had her all to myself for a few minutes. I still act like a puppy even though I'm turning 11 soon. We don't know when so we just celebrate Gotcha Days. They are much more important than any other day in my opinion.
Well, it's time to go snuggle down into my closet for the night.
We were away in Vermont playing agility over the long holiday weekend and we sure did have fun. I totally kicked puppy butt on course and Dad was soooooo proud of me. We were running at our friend's house in their barn and even though the temperatures outside reached 100°, the dirt floor barn stayed very cool and comfy. They never had so many people volunteer to set bars, time and scribe! Anywho, we arrived home fairly early this evening to find that I had all sorts of pressies from my furiends and I have been voted SCHNAUZERS RULE SCHNAUZER OF THE WEEK!!!!!! OMD!!!!!! How cool is that? I can't wait to answer questions and hear from all my pals. I also can't wait to dangle this in front of Dori and show her I'm still the king! BOL!
