My babies

I was reading BrykMantra this morning, and he has some great news! He's adopting a rescue animal -- a sheltie named Molly. Well, I can't help but be pleased to hear that he's getting a sheltie. They're my favorite breed of dog, and we have 2 of them.

I was going to take new pictures of the dogs this morning, but silly me, I left my new camera on, and the batteries are dead. :( So I put up some older ones. Padi has much longer hair now. Padi and Obi are wonderful dogs, and very, very smart. Shelties move very gracefully and have such beautiful coats. And shelties that are indoor dogs -- while quite hairy -- don't stink. Seriously, they don't have much of a dog smell. They love to play, and they learn tricks very quickly. Padi is older and knows more tricks than Obi, but Obi is my "lap-sheltie". Obi will jump up on my lap several times a day. It seems like it should hurt, but he's so careful when he jumps that it never does, although sometimes he really startles me if I'm not expecting it. ;)

Piglet, the miniature dachshund, is our auxiliary dog. She's our backup. Her job is to overreact to everything, and in case of a real EVENT, add a higher octave to the barking chorus. Also, she wears all the cute sweaters, as shelties don't need them.
