Puppy Camping is starting to fall into place. One spot for a few days this weekend, and multiple weeks in Canada with kids over the Holidays. Have to decide which dog matches each "spot" the best.
Have to admit I would prefer to have Letty home for Christmas though! Just amazes me how sappy I am about this silly little dog. Never say never! I have always vowed that I would never keep a dog with a higher tail, and certainly would not keep one that wasn't bold and fearless in all situations. Letty flunks both. Her tail is much better thank goodness, but it will never be perfect and I accept that. And she still prefers to be handled by me and a select group of "special friends". She's been that way from the age of 4 weeks, so I guess that's who she is. She is not a "pet me" dog with strangers, and prefers that they just leave her alone. She's fine in new situations and gets along well with other dogs, just has no interest in being handled by strangers, unlike her father and most other Argus kids who consider everyone a friend. Have not had a Dal like this for many years, although it used to be quite common in the breed. But she is so darned pretty, so great around the house, and so much fun to work with, I don't see her leaving any time soon. Sigh. I must be getting soft.
