Dogs,dogs,and more dogs!

As you all know animals have always been an important part of my life. Partly because we always had dogs around growing up. The first dog in my life was Hanna. Hanna was basically one of my best friends when I was little. I can remember on my birthdays I would blow out my candles and wish that Hanna would have babies. Haha if only I knew that she could NEVER have them! I could have made a better wish! The first time I ever experienced death was when Hanna was put down. It was really hard on me. I lost my best friend. Hanna had a severe infection, and she wouldn't let anyone treat it. She was fat, she stunk, and I loved her.


The next dogs we got were two adorable toy poodles. A white one named Dasie and a black/white one named Dottie. To say the least they haven't really been an impact in my life. It’s not my fault (cough , cough, Amanda ) I never really got to do anything with them. And when I did get the chance i realized they couldn't really do anything cool besides run in circles! Dottie is a sweet heart and always has; Dasie on the other hand is uhh...... special?Sugar....... sugar really isn't my dog but i am her mama. We got Sugar at the farmers market for Amanda. The lady said that they were Lab/Rott mix. Sugar really was the cutest puppy EVER. because she was total fluff and always wanted to please. She still has those iris eyes that are so beautiful. Now she is huge but has a big heart.



Almost 2 years ago I was looking through the thrifty nickel and saw that someone had collie/aussie/ schnauzer mix puppies. Low and behold it was fate. I don't know anyone who cant be happy around a puppy. Puppies are pure happiness. As humans i think we are all attracted to baby anything. Puppies are cute because they snuggle, suck on you fingers,puppy breath, sweet musty feet, their cute little wet noses, and make they make cute little noises. Sophie was the WORST puppy ever. She put me through a lot of stress. But now i couldn't ask for a better dog. She has helped me in so many ways. I have (somewhat) learned that losing your temper does no good when trying to accomplish something. That sometimes we all just need to relax and go for a walk. My friends call Sophie my baby.... and i guess some kid in drama actually thought i had a baby! All I can say is I LOVE MY Ausaborauzer! To say the least i cant see myself with out a dog for the rest of my life!

Hey, where's Kirby. He feels left out.
I think it's funny that we grew up in the same family, but they are so different. I didn't grow up with dogs so much. I think it is great that you have found such a great passion in your life at a young age.
As a side note, isn't baby D's round little bald head so cute!
