Santa
So… I admit I did this willingly. Hendrix and I were at a local pet store and a rescue foundation was having pictures with Santa for donations… and the stars aligned and no one was in line, Hendrix seemed curious, profit was going to an organization that rescued dogs from shelters and needed the cash to rescue 3 dogs, so I bit the bullet and did it. First off the Santa was FANTASTIC and Hendrix even let him pick him up and pet him, which is a first when it's in that order. Second, he was totally fine with it. The little ham had everyone cooing over him and petting him, and he just looked at me like, "see mom? I can be good when I want to be." And then there's the total "because mom wanted it" factor. I figured since he's a pup I can get away with it. Probably won't ever do this again but it was fun!

- Tell us about yourself: DS and Mal foster newly approved aug'12 by NADSR and ABMCR. high-functioning Autistic in nyc/hamptons in my 60's. Rescued the smartest dog i had ever seen off nyc street in 2000. Tracedog's intelligence exceeded by multiples my judgement that day. My first [and only as of 10/2012] dog turned out to be a DS, perhaps with a touch of something else, but attention to detail, behavioral traits, and physical habits, movement, and skill identical to DS. But MUCH more intellectual ability. supremely confident in all settings, fearless, very outgoing and social with people and friendly with dogs. Seldom apart in over 12 years, Trace Dog was the most important relationship of my adult life; he was my partner. He died july17,2012. i am dying without him. www.youtube.com/tracesobaka www.dogster.com/dogs/637612

Re: Santa
lol yup Heather that's his "WTF was THAT mom?" look. I think the photographer started trilling or something and he was caught between the urge to investigate and bark.

- Tell us about yourself: Artist, Mother, Equestrienne, Educator, Homesteader wannabe, dog-lover. Not counting my current DS, I have had 2 GSDs and 3 rescued mixed-breeds. All of these dogs were rescues, except for my childhood GSD, who was a gift from my parents when I was 7, and my current DS who I bartered artwork for from the breeder. Maiyou, one of my current dogs, is a Pitbull/New Guinea Singing Dog of 13 years old. Still very active and "Young" in nature. I now also have a DS named Mokume, (pronounced "Moh-koo-meh") or "Moko" for short. Newest member of our pack is Freyja, a random mixed hound I rescued during a horseback trip in the middle of a state forest.
