What a pretentious look on her muzzle! How could you NOT love that "Amy Winehouse" eye makeup!! Bio: Java (and her littermate brother Monkey) was most like a puppy mill dog though I didn't know that at the time. But given it's a deliberate mix of breeds, I don't know. It doesn't really matter, she's healthy, happy, and amazingly intuitive. Forums Motto: When in doubt, sit and be cute.

Wow I thought I went crazy and got on high alert for bunnehs but Sammie really gets into her hunting mode! We saw a bunneh on walkies last night and both of us tried to take off after it and our moms stopped us! We wanted so bad to go off-leash and track it! Mom said I get too focused and there's too much traffic and way too much danger so I could only pull on my leash and wag my tail and Sammie whined and puppy barked then we just gave up. It really IS totally NOT fair.
Mom's silly she thinks she can distract me from a bunny by saying things like "no bunny! that's an ugly kitteh!" BOL as if! Sometimes I believed her but then I catch its scent and I KNOW! I KNOW IT'S A BUNNEH!!! I am obsessed with bunnies!! I want to chase them! They give the BEST chases but I've only ever caught one and that's because all my cousins and brother were helping. Everyone's moms and dads were a bit upset though when we all came home covered in fur and blood and said it was a bit unfair that 6 dogs ran down one bunneh and was so fast the humans couldn't respond quick enough. So now I have the taste for the chase, I'm crazy when it comes to bunnehs!
Me and Monkey had a play date on Saturday and it was pawsome fun! We wrestled and chased the kitty and each other and it was a LOT of fun!! I miss my brother! He needs to visit more but he's been really busy with the new additions to his family, a step-sister Gaia and TWO kitties, Thor and Keno! I haven't met Gaia yet but I am supposed to at the park in the next couple weeks.
I hate to say it, but mom's probably right, I AM a bit smitten with Granite, a Shiba Inu that lives in our community. Monkey startled Granite's daddy so I didn't get to say hi. Monkey tends to be a bit more reactive than me and if you don't know him, you'd think he was Cujo. BOL!1
