Frida

Frida is going to be a big dog. At approximately 9 1/2 weeks she is tipping the scales at around 20 pounds. She went for her first "POWER WALK" tonight with a friend and I. She and her large paws were able to keep up to our gait. Now she is a puddle of puppy on the floor, large floppy paws and all. I am glad I finally got a Duffy dog. I felt so lost when we had to put Duffy down. He was an awesome dog. He loved kids, despised male Energy Marketers, or anyone who was threatening. Unfortunately his hips were failing. Frida, is wonderful, she can sit, shake a paw, stay, alert me when she needs to piddle, and now POWER WALK. I honestly believe that there should be an actual breed recognized by the CKC, or AKC, called the "Duffy Dog". Half Labrador, 1/4 shepherd, and probably some other stuff thrown in there for good luck. The goofiness of the lab counteracts the other parts, but is infused with intelligence and gusto. But before everyone runs out and goes puppy nuts, remember, the late night piddles, the way they sound like howler monkeys when they don't want to be in their crates, and the sheer exhaustion of having to constantly remove your digits from their snappy little mouths. My little Frida Bits. . .My Duffy in disguise.
