We got her because we missed our daughter's Westie so much-- Whitley had moved to California. I picked her out because when the breeder put all the puppies in a basket, she was the first one to figure how to get out. Bio: Finley is a native Texan, born in Fort Worth. She has slept with the humans since she was 6 weeks old. She is always smiling. She likes playing with and taking naps with her cat buddy, Jezebel. She loves when Whitley is at home, and follows her everywhere. Forums Motto:

Hi puppers! Momma FINALLY came home yesterday so I's can get on dis thing and wish everyone a belated happy Valentine's Day! Thanks to Sunny the Westie, Petey, Puffy and Coco Rose for the valentine cards-- I's gonna have to get Momma to make some fer me next year. I saw where some of the pups is answering 20 Questions, so's I thought I would play along...
1. WHAT COLOR COLLAR ARE YOU WEARING?
Pink with flowers cuz I's a girl (although some dummies see me and still call me "he"-- whut's up with dat?)
2. DOES YOUR LEASH MATCH YOUR COLLAR?
Yep, all my leashes are pink--fer the reason, see answer #1.
3. WHAT’S WORSE? An EVIL NEMESIS SQUIRREL bouncing around in the trees or across the fence, a Crow strutting around in your yard or Neighbor People outside talking?
Squirrels drive me da nuttiest. Dey taunts me from da safety of da trees.. come down here and we'll see if ya keep talkin' smack, squirrelie....
4. DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE SNACK?
Hmmm.... dat's hard. I luvs whutever I can con da hoomans out of-- bits of steak, bacon, eggie weggies, cheese, pizza crusts, Texas Toothpicks, Halley Hound peanut butter treats and der Ginger Stars, too, and Purina Select Choice chicken slices (usta call them Carvers, I think). I killed a couple of rats... they wuz kinda tastee...
5. WHERE WAS YOUR LAST CAR RIDE?
I went down to Austin in January... I gots to see my BFF Whitley and had to listen to Maurice da cat meow the whole way down dere... unless they played Britney Spears on da car stereo. Apparently, he's a fan.
6. DO YOU STICK YOUR HEAD OUT THE WINDOW ON CAR RIDES?
No way, Jose... Momma wouldn't let me do dat.
7. DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE TOY?
I luv da toys-- all of dem-- but probably my favorite is my tennis ball bone. I think I's on my third or fourth one of dose. The first one quit squeakin' when Momma stuck a needle thru its squeaker. Guess I shoulda lissened when she said she I wuz makin' her head hurt. I chews 'em and squeaks 'em until the tennis ball fuzz wears off and they look gross and then Momma tosses 'em and I get a new one. Right now I have a loopy armadillo I's enjoyin' tearing the loops off of...
8. DO YOU HAVE A BOYFURIEND OR GIRLFURIEND?
I has several admirers, but I likes to play the field.
9. DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE WALK?
Any walk is a good walk-- I loves my walks!!
10. DO YOU GO TO DOG PARKS?
Nope. I's kinda got some terriertude... kinda like that Johnny Cash song "I won't back down"... hee hee....
11. WHERE DO YOU SLEEP AT NIGHT?
I sleep on Daddy's feet mostly, cuz his side of da bed is near the door. Once he gets up (wid da roosters, Momma sez), I move myself up the bed and sleep wid my head on his pillow. Nice of him to warm it up fer up me...
12. DO YOU SNORE?
I's been told I do, but considerin' the sources, dey ain't got room to talk, know whut I mean?
13. DO YOU SLEEP UNDER THE COVERS?
Only if it's really, really, cold or if I just feel like confusin' the folks.
14. DO YOU HAVE TO WEAR CLOTHES?
Yep, cuz of my allergies, I has to wear clothes to keep me from chewin' myself. But I luvs clothes!! I dances fer 'em-- dresses, bandanas, tshirts, jumpsuits, vests, hoodies... I never met any clothes I didn't like. I luvs it when Momma makes me sumthin' new to wear!
15. ARE YOU THE FAVORITE DOG?
I'm da only dog 'cept when Whitley's home, so I guess I wins by default. De fault of da parents fer not havin' more dogs..
16. WHERE IS YOUR FAVORITE SPOT TO SLEEP IN THE HOUSE?
On Momma's ottoman right between Momma's feet though I also likes to nap on da back of the couch... great view from up dere.
17. WHAT’S THE BEST HUMAN FOOD YOU’VE EVER BEEN FED?
Hmmm, I luvs me beef jerky made by Momma! ( And her barbeque, steak, ribz... anything I can snag from the grill.)
18. DO YOU GO TO A DOG GROOMER?
No, my Momma enjoys torturin' me herself.
19. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF BATHS?
It ain't fer polite company.... (Dogster has rulez against dat kinda language!)

Puppers, we had so much rain this week, I'd thought we's gonna need us an ark!! On Wednesday night it just poured and poured and poured!! Momma drug me out into the pourin' rain and wouldn't let me go in the house until I did my yard art. I coulda drownded, I tells ya!!
And even though we had sunshine on Thursday and Friday, the yard went squish! squish! squish!! every time I walked across it! It were disgustering!! I hates a wet canvas!! Blechhhhh.....
At least it quit rainin'.... finally... and today the yard wasn't so squishy.
Momma put up my Valentine background. She made the New Year's one... it was Whit's Momma's turn to make this one. It's real purdy, I think. I got me a chatbox, too, so stop by and give me a holler sumtime. We's gonna lose our guestbook and slideshows soon, cuz Slide is going away... ratz!! Momma is looking for a new slideshow.... she's seen a coupla... can't find a good guestbook, though. Double ratz!!
I'd like to ask my Pals to head over to Kilkenny's page and send her a PupPal request. Her folks have lost two of their beloved pups last year... her brother Connor (Conchobar MacNessa) passed away on Christmas Day.... and MacKenzie Girl passed away last summer.
So pups, if you can, please make Kenny feel welcome to Dogster. Let's share some of the love we have in such abundance here...
