Favorite brand of kibble: I’m a hometown girl, I prefer Purina. I’m enjoying Pro Plan right now.
Favorite people food: Anything with peanut butter. I go crazy for peanut butter on biscuits, bread, tortillas. I like it all, as long as there’s peanut butter involved.
Favorite toy: My ball, my ball is everything. I could play for hours, if only mom would throw it that long.
Favorite outdoor activity: Playing ball and hiking with my mom. It’s even better if we do both at the same time!
Favorite indoor activity: I like to spend time with my feline best friend, Hanna. She and I hang out and preen, sometimes each other, then we lay around on the couch and watch nature out the window. I also enjoy reading, mainly dog mysteries.
Favorite nap spot: Other than the couch, it would have to be mom’s bed. I like the very center best, that’s where I sleep each night too. I have to be as close to my mom as possible at all times.
Fitness regimen: When we were younger, Hanna and I had a strict fitness regimen which consisted of chasing each other till we were beyond tired. Now days we prefer a nap to a run, given our advanced ages.
Describe your perfect canine pal: They would have to get along with Hanna, otherwise no deal. Hopefully we wouldn’t bore them with our senior ways; napping endlessly, eating dinner at straight up 6 o’clock and our afternoon walk at 2 o’clock sharp. We have quite the schedule.
Describe your perfect day: Hanna and I would wake mom up. She would make us peanut butter biscuits and Earl Gray. Then we would decide how we wanted to spend the rest of the day. The pictures to the right are evidence of one such day. Mom called it Babes in Snowland. I won’t say here what Hanna called it….
