One day we went to the pound and discovered the cutest dog in the world.
She had already been given the name Whiskey and was 5 or 6 years old.
That was in 1997 and she's been with us ever since.
The pound's records said that she's
half Golden Retriever (which is fairly obvious if you look at her after
a haircut). We guess another part may be Border Collie.
Whiskey also loves to go for rides. Almost as much as she loves to go
running through rain and puddles and creeks.
The first winter we lived on the farm, a family of dogs came to live with us. We kept the girl puppy, and named her Nanny (short for Nanjemoy).
We named Nanny's brother Chicamuxen, or Chick for short. Jenny's mother thinks he is the perfect dog, so now he lives with her.
Nanny's mother and her friend come to "visit" us. Well, alright, they spend more time here than with their owners. We call them Brindle, and Wolfie, respectively, but their owners call them Queenie and Vince.
