@Karrits, your dog reminds me of my dog, had her for 16 yrs. she passed away a few years ago and now I have a very loving cat. Funny her owner died and she was with her for 4 or 5 days until they found her. She is a charmer. I decided on a cat as it is hard for me to take a dog out in the winter here in Northern NH. too much ice and snow. So now me and my love bug cat stay in. We fight for my recliner as it is where my computer is. She thinks its her chair, but I got news for her. I have always loved dogs and cats, I baby set my daughters dog, she is a German Sheppard, my favorite dog, she knows my name when they say I am coming. Love all dogs and cats.
