Dog of The Day-4-25-2020


Name:	Sophie	Age:	One year, five months old
Gender:	Female	Breed:	Basset Hound
Home:	England, United Kingdom
Here is Sophie, our Basset Hound. Her show dog name is Thaxton's Tryhena Sparks of Weybilyns but her pet name is Sophie. She is a tri colored basset hound, she is my first Basset and she is so sweet, friendly, and loves kids. I think she should be honored because she qualified for Crufts, for me it's the first time I have ever qualified a dog for the big show. We may not even get there, but just qualifying is a big deal for us. Sophie loves to sit on your lap - as big as she is for a cuddle. And her best friend is her pal, an English Setter called Dizzy. She likes to dig. and chew carboard toilet roll tubes, the rain doesn't bother her although she does hate puddles! Hugs, Angel

Dog of The Day-4-26-2020

 
Name:Batman 
Age:Three years old
Gender:MaleBreed:Labrador Retriever, Dachshund mix
Home: Germantown, Maryland, USA

 
   Hi, my name is Batman.  My mom rescued me from the Humane Society about two years ago.  When my mom brought me home,  I was full grown and weighed 11 pounds.  I am now tipping the scale at over 20 pounds!  I have a big Black Lab head and a little Dachshund body (I'm only about one foot tall). 

     I love to go to the park and chase tennis balls. I am pretty fast, being streamlined and low to the ground as I am, I speed like the Batmobile! I also love to play "dress up" and have my picture taken. As you can see here, I was, of course, Batman for Halloween. 
Hugs,
Angel

Dog of The Day-4-27-2020

Name:Pete 
Age:Ten years old
Gender:MaleBreed:Toy Fox Terrier
Home: North Carolina, USA
 
   This is Pistol Pete  - also known as Pete, or Petey. Pete is one special little guy!  He can always put a smile on our faces with his antics.  He is very well behaved and goes with us everywhere.  Pete recently rode 20 miles on a bicycle on the Virginia Creeper Trail.  As long as we are with him he is happy to go anywhere and do anything!  Pete knows all his basic obedience commands very well and can also do around 20 tricks.  He loves to perform and it thrills kids for him to high five or give them his left or right paw.   

     Pete only weighs five pounds, but he thinks he is king of our mountain.  He is a wonderful little watch dog and warns us of any strangers.  Pete loves to play and is always warp speed ahead until he sees it is relax time, then he'll come and curl up beside you on the couch and snuggle until it's time for bed.  Our family is lucky to have Petey and not a day goes by without a laugh or smile!!! 

Hugs,
Angel

Dog of The Day-4-28-2020

Name:Scooby, Daisy  
Age:Four years old, Three years old
Gender:Male, FemaleBreed:West Highland Terrier
Home: Palm Bay, Florida, USAA
 
   What makes my Westies special is the love that they show me every day. They are two peas in a pod and they just love each other and their Mom. Their nicknames are Scooby Doo and Daisy Mae. They are very smart dogs and their personalities are out of this world. Very friendly, they just love people, Scooby's motto is "I am a lover not a fighter" he does not have a mean bone in his body. He greets everyone with love and just wants attention from you. He says pet me, play with me and in return I will give you kisses all over your face.  Daisy is the alpha dog in the pack, she keeps Scooby in line and she is the protector. She has a lot of motherly instincts, her motto is " Don't mess with my Momma or my Brother, or you will pay" She is not mean in any way but when we are at the dog park she sticks right next to me and if any other dogs come over to me she lets them know not to get to close. The same with her brother, if someone is playing too hard with Scooby, she will go over to the other dog and bark at him, saying "Don't mess with my brother." Everyone at the dog park calls her "The no fun police." 

     Both dogs are very affectionate when they want to be, my little girl is more affectionate than her brother. Scooby is Mr. Independent but when he wants a hug and a belly rub from Mom he can be very affectionate. But if Mom wants a hug from her pup and he does not want to give a hug, then he becomes Mr. Wiggly right out of my arms. It's like how dare you pick me up, I am a big boy. 

     Their favorite things to do are chasing squirrels, digging holes and going to the dog park. They know the basic tricks, sit, give me paw, lay down and their favorite games to play is chasing squeaky gator in the back yard. They love to take rides with Mom and I take them up to the Pet Store for their bully stick. Everyone at the pet store know who Scooby and Daisy are, they have entered a couple of costume contest. They took first place for the best dressed contest and at Halloween they took second place for best costume.  

     Every year we do a Christmas card and this year I made their outfits for them. Scooby just loves posing in his Top Hat with his Candy Cane vest and Daisy loves her Candy Cane dress and bow. Everyone ask me how do I get them to pose for me. I will let you know my secret; it's called a bag of treats!!! I hold the bag of treats over my head with one hand and the camera in the other. You get them to focus on the treats and snap away. 

Hugs,
Angel

Dog of The Day-4-30-2020
 
Name: Shelton
Age:Twelve years old
Gender:MaleBreed:Shetland Sheepdog


Home: 
Clemmons, North Carolina, USA
 
   Shelton is the most well-behaved dog we've ever seen. He is a Shetland Sheepdog - not, like some people think, a "miniature collie." Shelties are a separate breed, and of course, are from the Shetland Islands area of Scotland. He loves everyone and makes friends with everyone he meets. He's very smart and he's also our first dog. He is definitely part of our family.  

     Shelton loves to play tug of war and fetch with his favorite toys. Small noises drive him crazy sometimes, but that's what makes him special. No bad guy will ever sneak into our yard unnoticed, that's for sure. He's the best!  
Hugs,
Angel
