I'll admit that I'm a sucker for red and tan dogs, but two years ago when I went looking for a dog it was a cute solid black dog that caught my attention. She is the sweetest dog ever, very mellow and well behaved, even as a puppy I didn't have many problems with her. She doesn't live with me anymore, I have "joint custody" of her. But I stop by almost everyday and visit her and I take out to the park a few times a week. Her name is Missy Misdemenor Elliot. Missy for short.
