This is Silver. He was in our home for a short period, and though we loved him, we've sent him on to another good home.
He was so much fun to play with, but he had a little habit of growling
at the young kids and nipping their faces. Never actually biting, just
nipping. No skin was broken. But we figured we shouldn't take the
chance that it might happen one day. So he's with another family with
older children. He was great, but not the right fit.
Kenya loved to play tug of war with Silver. It was fun to watch.
And this is Arie. She's with us for now and though she is an absolute sweetie who loves to lick you till your soaked, she's also not the right fit for our family. She doesn't like to play with the kids, only tackle then and lick them. As you may have already guessed, the kids aren't terribly fond of this. They'll giggle and let her lick them, but then when they want to play she'll just lay down. So we're finding her a good home as well.
We're still on the search for another wonderful dog to be in our home that will fit all of us. We're thinking an Australian shepherd puppy in the fall. Who knows. We want a dog we can take hiking and camping with us. One that is smart enough to train and gentle and kind. Any ideas? What are your favorite dogs?
