She is such a joy in our lives---she has stayed very snuggly and loves kisses. Her older sister Virginia and her play for hours---they quite loud with there barks and growling while they play. They enjoy chasing the sparrows in the barn and Dottie loves to walk the horses out to pasture every morning. Dottie has become good friends with our youngest horse, Iris. I will see if I can get a pic. of them "talking". She is such a happy young dog, always a smile on her face and ready to be loved at a moments notice!

Dottie is doing great at 14 months. She keeps us on our toes with her endless energy. Dottie fully believes she is in control of the horses, but we know they just let her think that. We often see Dottie running with the herd. I do believe she was a horse in a past life! She is a complete joy and one of the happiest dogs I know. Her enthusiasm for life is definitely contagious as it is hard to have a bad day with her in our lives!
