Scout is just a little over 3 years old and the best pup I've ever had. Though, I've probably said that about every dog I've ever met/had. She was the easiest dog to train, has the sweetest personality, just the right amount of protectiveness and the cuddliest dog I've ever met. She's also very much a creature of habit, much like myself, so we have a good routine. Every morning when I'm making coffee, she comes and puts her front paws on my chest and stretches/gets ear scratches. Then when I'm blow drying my hair, she'll sit in the open doorway with her back to me, EVERY morning. I've never had the same connection with any other dog.
Dixie was just a little over 11 years old when we had to put her down a few months back. My husband got her right before he moved here and before I came along, it was just the two of them. She was a GREAT hunter and the happiest when hunting. She was a great, great dog. It was heartbreaking to watch Scout look for her for the first few days after she was gone.
I met this Great Pyrenees out in Wyoming where we were hunting and fishing. He was at the ranch that we would park at to go hunting or fishing. He belonged to the Peruvian sheep herders who were always out with their herds when we were there. Had I seen the Peruvians, I would have offered a stupid amount of money to take this dog home. For some reason I felt a huge connection to that pup and REALLY wanted to take him home with me. I just called him "White Dog". Such a sweet boy.
