Arrival Story: I've owned Ty since he was 10 weeks old. I'd been looking for a second dog for a few months after our beloved cat Ramsey passed away. My family and i didn't feel we could have another cat as we'd lost 2 within the same 6 months and our boys were one in a million cats. So a puppy was decided. Ty was from a litter of 10 and my sister was the one who chose him. He's the calmest dog i've ever known and as a puppy was very mature, he was not your typical puppy. Training has been easy in some parts, hard in others, he was housetrained within 3 weeks and knew sit after 1 week. He has the gentlest of nature and is very tolerant of other dogs, letting my sisters dog jump all over his face and body without a murmour. He's also very Sensitive, sweet and affectionate, my perfect boy :)
Bio: Tyler was from a planned litter of Whippet/Labrador crosses. His mum was a yellow Labrador. His Dad was a Whippet that had qualified and been placed at Crufts. His breeders wanted something lighter boned then a Labrador but heavier then a Whippet and they achieved what they was looking for. Tyler was taken to a big Companion Dog Show in 2006 and was entered into a few show Categories. He was placed first in " Shining Example" or "Best Health" etc. I had to show him in front of hundreds of people and he made it to the finals, beating 1200 dogs. His Picture was then featured in a monthly Dog Magazine. He's simply the bestest boy ever and i wouldn't be without him :)
Forums Motto:
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hope you're all having a great start to your new year :)
I sure am because of course today is my Birthday. I am 4 years old now and mum wonders where the time has gone. Seems like it was only yesterday she was picking my tiny 10 week old self up from my breeders and now here we are 4 years on.....
Mum tells me all the while how much she loves me and that i'm such a good boy. She knows i'm a one in a million dog but then don't all our pawrents think that? ;)
I got a nice new blanket ( i do love my creature comforts and to stay toasty ) a BIG stuffed Monkey toy ( i love to nibble and then collapse on top of them in bed ) and a little box of treats which she said would be good to have on walks etc.
Auntie Kirsty got me 2 packs of chewy rawhide bones in flavours such as Strawberry and Bananna ( they are delicious, i've had 3 today and i stole Missy's half BOL ) and also another smaller stuffie with a squeaker that i can nibble on :)
*Pictures to follow these next few days*
I'm a very blessed pup to have such a loving mum and family. But mum says she is the one who is truly blessed.
*Hugs*
Ty xxxxxxx
PS: Thanks for the p-mails, cards and gifts you've all sent me. They sure make me feel special.
Your dog is a Spontaneous, Gamma and Medium Activity type which we call the Companion. The Companion has the softest, most charming character for a family pet. They are funny, silly, laid back, subservient and obedient. It is rarely serious, is everyone's friend and its favourite pastime is to 'ride' the couch. The most unobjectionable combination of traits. Do not expect it to be a strong watch dog, athlete, or seem especially clever.
So very true again apart from the bit where it says "they are silly, and rarely serious". I'm a serious dog and don't really have silly moments...i can be clumsy though. Everything else is spot on! Mum has realized i will never be the next obediance champ or a dog that hangs on her every command. But being part Whippet i am a natural athlete. I've never barked at the front door to alert my humans to anyone and am incredibly laid back and tolerant. I'm a perfect companion :)
I was tagged by my very good friend Saphira about a week or two ago. I've only just got round to playing to be honest...sorry Saphira, but i'm playing now :D
