DSC_0148DSC_0145DSC_0155DSC_0120

Sandy is still fairly young. We will update her page once she matures. For now, this is what she is like:

She is a very loving puppy. If she's not snuggling up with one of her people than she's snuggling with a stuffed animal. She is a social little girl who loves to play with whoever will pay her attention. She's funny with her paws and almost acts like a cat when reaching out with them to play or introduce herself to a new person or dog. She enjoys her daily walks and car rides to pick up her little person (6 year old child) Lucy from school everyday. She dislikes being left behind.

banshee

DSC_0227DSC_0229DSC_0213DSC_0206DSC_0228

Banshee has average terrier instincts when it comes to prey drive (mice) and ball drive (retrieving & chasing). Very social - She enjoys other dogs and is quite people oriented too. She is a sensible dog and not an over-reactive dog, meaning she uses her head to think a situation through. Defensive drives; Banshee is not a bully in any way, she never causes trouble and always gets on well with other dogs. She is always happy, in a playful mood and looking for a good time with anyone willing to play with her.

Likes:

  • Walks
  • Sitting by the campfire with her people
  • Swimming
 
Dislikes:
  • Loud noises. Banshee prefers a mellow environment
 
Known around here for: Being easy going and always happy! Banshee is always happy to do what everyone around her is doing.

_DSC0717_DSC0920chioeLucy & Chloe_DSC0650

Chloe has typical Terrier instincts when it comes to prey drive (retrieving, chasing balls & squirrels & trailing scents). Her pack drive is very high making her a wonderful little terrier who enjoys people. Defensive drives (fight or flight) are low - She is sound in this area. Chloe is such a nice little pup. She's easy going and always ready for a good time.


Likes:

  • Snuggling and sleeping with her little person Lucy
  • Playing and running outside with her four legged friends
 
Dislikes:
  • Being alone

Known around here for: The life of the party and sweet as pie.
