My dog Pippin rocks!

So this morning, I walk to the back door to let in Pippin after he did his morning "runs" about the fences in our back yard. As he came inside, our cat (who we keep inside) got out. "Oh no!" I exclaimed, as I was at that point dressed in nothing more than this somewhat see-thru Victoria's Secret pajama-type thing. Pippin immediately went outside, stopped the cat from progressing off the porch into the lawn, then CORRALED THE CAT BACK THROUGH THE DOOR! I was ecstatic! I think Pippin deserves an up in his bone and treat ration for the day!

5. Wow- I have an American Eskimo too!

I love her to death, she is a very affectionate dog. The ONLY thing I don't like in the breed is they are very vocal dogs. She will go outside sometimes and bark just to hear her own voice. I don't have any neighbors within earshot of my house so it isn't a problem.

Angel after her shave. It gets up to 100+ degrees in Tennessee and she really seems to enjoy less hair in the summer.

A close up.

Two weeks after I adopted her- She arrived pregnant. I kept her pups too.

Here she is last year.

7. Oh wow. What a beautiful dog!

Pippin has a longer snout than the average mini eskie. He's 2 years-old and rather rambunctious. He does not trust strangers, still, but we are working on that.

Angel is a beautiful dog!

9. I love it!

:hi: We had a border collie mix who did that to the neighborhood children, and she was the hit of the neighborhood. :rofl: I had parents asking if they could buy her from us, and of course I refused. :P
