Quick Bio:

Birthday:
January 12th 2005

Likes:
Picking on her 100-pound "sister," Maxie; running around like a crazy dog.

Pet-Peeves:
Maxie getting more attention than her.

Favorite Toy:
Her kong filled with peanut butter

Favorite Food:
Iams dry mixed with Iams canned beef

Favorite Walk:
ANYWHERE!!! And, she RUNS....she doesn't have time to walk. She does everything at 100 MPH.

Best Tricks:
She had no tricks or any discipline up to a month ago when she was adopted. Now, she can "sit," and "stay." (If she's in the mood.) She'll attend obedience training next month.

Arrival Story:
My Cocker, LuckyJo, had to be put to sleep on 12-15-06, because of kidney failure. My remaining dog, Maxie, was very "lost" without LuckyJo. She was very sad. She had never been alone before; she was always a dog of two or a dog of three; I decided to get another Cocker to keep her company. She was raised with Cockers. I contacted my animal control officer and told her I was looking for a female Cocker Spaniel to keep Maxie company. She found one in a few weeks -- an owner surrender. They said she was 3.5 years old. When I took her to my vet for her initial work-up, they were convinced she's no more than about 2 years old. I agree -- she's too wild to be that old! (BOL!!) Anyway, I'm working on training her and getting her calmed down.....she does everything 100 MPH, she's gonna wear herself out in about 5 years! Update June 2008: Freckles has been with us now about 1.5 years, and she's getting better. She's my "work in progress." She's still a bird-crazy hunter, but she does have some manners now. She's a very loving little dog....just VERY HIGH energy! Update June 2009: Freckles is turning into a very loving little dog. Initially, she wouldn't look you in the eye, or want to be near anyone....she'd just go into another room and be by herself. A few months ago, she finally started "warming up;' she'd look you in the eye, lay by you, and actually nudge you to get petted. That's SOOOOO cool. I didn't think she'd ever turn into all of my other dogs -- loving and needy. Just the way I love them to be. She still has her Freaky Frecky moments, but during "normal" times, she's just that: normal. Like a real dog. I don't know what the other homes that had her did to her to make her so stand-offish, but I finally brought her out of it. Whew.

Bio:
Freckles is a beautiful little chocolate and white Cocker with a zillion freckles on her body. Her little butt cheeks are brown, and she has her little wigglebutt tail of pure white in between that field of brown. She's absolutely gorgeous. Now, if we could just CALM HER DOWN a bit!!! ;-)

I Was Tagged by Archie!!!

Here are the rules:

Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Dogs who are tagged need to write in their own diary about the seven random facts and the rules. You need to choose seven dogs to tag and list their names. Don’t forget to leave them a comment that they have been tagged and to read your diary.

My seven random facts:

1) I am BIRD CRAZY! I'm always looking up to find a bird. Birds, birds, birds, birds, birds.

2) When nothing else takes my attention from birds, FOOD always works! I'm an obedience school graduate, but you'd never guess it.

3) I love peanut butter in my kong. Or, peanut butter straight out of the jar. Whatver, as long as it's peanut butter.

4) I love barking at other cars during a car ride! I love barking at kids on bikes, at other dogs, and mostly at birds!

5) Mom calls me her 100 MPH dog, cuz I do everything FAST FAST FAST!

6) I like to pick on my 100-pound sister, Maxie!

7) I like to curl up by mom on the couch, or lay on her feet when she's on the computer. It's the ONLY time I'm not going 100 MPH!

I now tag these 7 dogs:

My two partners in crime, Nya & Jovi
and, also:
Rummie
Bosco
Sadie
Morgan
and
Hank the Handsome Hound

TAG, you're it!!!
