My sweet Reba! She always looks like she is crying because she gets hair in her eyes from shedding. If I could only get her to stop shedding :) She is the dog of my heart. She won't give kisses except on the most rare and special of occasions. She doesn't take food from strangers no matter how good it is. She is my appointed watchdog. when she came to our home we were literally full up. I was busy working and my daughter came trotting in and said "Daddy got another puppy." I said "No way you are kidding" she said it again "Daddy got another puppy" Now bear in mind that he has sworn to me "I am NOT a dog person" yeah right... He picked up the second dog we let in. Anyway I just couldn't belive he had gotten another dog~ puppy no less. we had barely gotten Gloria house-trained She was our third. So in comes Matt (sworn "NOT dog person") with this stiff scabby puppy. I was a little horrified. He was on his way out right away so he just kind of dumped her in my lap and took off. She had a collar on and as I took it down to the second wrap around her neck I could see it was really a cargo strap held on by a safety pin. She had a sore between her shoulder blades from the fleas that covered her sweet little body. Ugh... I just couldn't get over it. I put her in the sink and scrubbed her. She just stayed stiff she wasn't liking that at all. (She still hates a bath and will sit down right away.) So these days she lays around wags like mad if I so much as glance in her direction. We joke that she wags like a fish out of water, she gets her whole body going and you can tell she is so full of joy she could just burst. Oh and the topper... she will drink my coffee if I leave it unattended, she loves it. I couldn't believe it the first time I caught her because she is our picky dog. Yep she is my secret favorite~ don't tell the others.
