Hey yall. I'm Calli. I'm 10 years old and demand the respect of all! Everything in the house is mine - well I share sometimes. I have a little bit of arthritis in the hips and my face is grey, but don't you be fooled - I'm still very active and I can hold my own with these younger ones. When people knock on our door and I answer it with mom, they always take a few steps backwards when they see me. I'm such a big and formidable looking girl! Deep down I'm a sweetie pie (don't tell that stinky basenji Rikki). I like to sit out in the back yard and watch traffic go by. But it has to be cool - I can't take that heat any more! And water! Oh my gosh - is there anything better? I drink and drink and drink until there is no more. Mom fusses at me all the time. When she's busy, I sneak quietly over and sip real slow so she doesn't hear me. That way I get all of the water. And food! When we all get our bowls, mom goes upstairs to get dressed for work. Well, I eat all of the little ones' food and save mine for later (they can't reach mine because it is up high). Ha ha ha! I went away to school when I was young and I'm still really good with my obedience commands (when I want to be good, that is). I mind sometimes. I know how to push mom's buttons. When she calls me in from the backyard, I won't come. And when she walks up to me, I run just out of her reach. She get's so mad! And I do it until she says a bad word (or two). It's lots of fun! Well, I guess that's enough about me for now. Yall be my dogster pals, OK? Calli in Georgia
