Why did you choose your dog(s)?
Blackie - My parents really chose him because my brother and I were young. We all liked him though. He was a really good (but extreamly hyper!) pup who tolorated rough handiling, but liked to jump, nip, and chase. lol
Rose - I picked her out when I was seven. I liked her because she was a rolly polly puppy and was the only dog, aside from her sister, who were a brindle coloring. Not the best reason to pick a dog, but she has turned out great. She also acts like Brownie did, so it is like I still have her as well.
What do you like most about your dog(s)?
Blackie - his big ol' easy going attitude. He is friendly, responsive, wonderful with kids, and he is also a good guard dog.
Rose - her athleticism. I love watching her run full speed and jump 3 feet strait up in the air. I also like that she can learn to co-exist with other animals (unless if they are a rodent or a Ferret.
).
What do you like least about your dog(s)?
Blackie - his dog aggression. That drives me crazy. If only he was good with other dogs, we'd be able to take him more places with us.
Rose - Her wariness of strangers. She is just wary of people and I have no clue why. She won't let anyone touch her (unless it is a kid, she is wonderful with kids) outside of the family. She is also noise sensitive, so I feel sorry for her when their is a thunderstorm or fireworks or whatever.
