Sadie-She's my girl. She was first in the family and holds a very special place. She is so loving and gentle. She gives the sweetest kisses. Always wants to be with me or hubby if he is around. She makes a great cuddle buddy. Her easy going nature and all around lovingness is what makes her so special.

Maggie-She's the scrappy little one, little dog with big attitude. I like that she doesn't take crap from anyone. She also loves to sit with me and curl next to me. She's harder to cuddle with because she's so small, but I love when she lays next to me. Her scrappy attitude and go get em attitude is what makes her special. Always up for a squirrel chasing.

Grant-My boy, my first boy. He's very loving as well, although he wants to love my whole face with his tongue. His never ending energy, wish I had that much energy, and intelligence are awesome. He's your typical ACD, always on the go and wanting to be with his people. I like that when I take a shower, I often find him laying on the floor next to the tub or right outside my bathroom door waiting for me. Awww. He loves his Mom.

I love so much about her it is going to be hard to pin point some attributes but here goes.

I love her unpredictableness. She normally isn't much of a morning dog. She is quiet and calm usually but then some mornings she comes in from her first morning potty time at 5:30 am and sees me coming out of the bedroom to help get her breakfast and breakfast for the cats and she goes wild! She woos with her morning voice (much softer) and starts doing wild zoomy dog racing about the living room while spinning in tight circles and stopping in front of me in freeze frame mode before she takes off again.

I love her silly funny face when she has open laughing mouth and her head cocked. I love how she is learning to cuddle with me on the sofa and she tucks her nose in my underarm or somewhere underneath me then gives a HUGE sigh of happiness.

I love her singing in the evenings with us and how cute her mouth is when she is talking and wooing.

I love how she loves us and gets sooo happy to see us when we get home.

I love how she cocks her head and watches the TV so carefully when Animal Planet is on. Or how she gets a cat toy and tries to walk past us like she doesnt' have anything at all yet she is holding her mouth strangely closed with this totally innocent look in her pretty blue eyes...

I could just go on and on.

I am so happy we have her in our lives.

Ginger: My Ginger is not the brightest bulb in the box but she is pure love and so funny. I love the way she gets so excited just to go bye bye. She jumps around like a puppy and that gives me the greatest joy, especially since she is quite crippled with arthritis. She is also a comforting soul, if she knows I'm upset she will put her paw up on my shoulder, when she can reach, and just licks me to death to make me feel better. And food, LOL that is Ginger's best friend. She is so funny, she can hear the treat jar lid for anywhere in the house or outside and she comes running.

Cracker: He's the smartest dog I ever met. I love the way he can see cause and effect and reason things out, he's absolutely brilliant. He's my snuggle baby, he loves to sleep with me and cuddle up into a tiny ball behind my knees. I have woken up with him sprawled across my chest though, HEAVY! He has to go everywhere with me, he's like my shadow and I love his pure joy just to see me when I get home from somewhere. His most endearing quality is that when he's scared or something happens to him that he doesn't like he runs to me with his tail tucked so I can "fix" it. He is my absolute baby. And he sings! I love the singing, it's hilarous. He sings to the recorder or harmonica and it's soo adorable.

When I sneak a peek at her, and find Logan staring at me when she lays down and I'm working or cooking. She follows me everywhere. Immediate tail wags of happiness. When she's on her pillow at night and I walk into the bedroom and even though she's curled into a little ball, her tail starts whipping away. The amazement of how advanced and wonderful she's become since being adopted. Her eagerness to always please. Her playfullness and total understanding of words and moods. I always think about how we instantly bonded at the pound, despite all the other barking dogs. How she stopped barking and sat on command and tipped her head. We looked each other in the eye and that was it. I'm thankful every day.
