My nickname is "Worm". Everyone asks my Mom why in the world she calls
me such a name. Personally I love it. She tells me that I've "wormed"
my way deep into her heart. I am the alpha female around here and the
oldest one, just slightly, of the girls. I immediately let any new dog
that comes here who the boss is and what the rules are. If two of these
guys get to playing to rough I step in to tell them to take it easy. I
always stand up for the young ones since they need a protector just
cause they are young. Once they are old enough they are on their own.
Sticky and I are great buddies. I bite and pull on his legs all the
time. I was brought into the family specifically to be a buddy for Sticky.
Sticky and I both know I'm the top girl around here.
I have the best nose of all of us. Judges have said there was no way
there would be birds where I've said as I was upwind, Mom always kicked
up a covey. They always said it was a real joy judging me. As far as
the squirrels go - when I know one is treed I go to a shady spot close
by and wait for them to come down. Mom always calls me in before that
has ever happened. (sigh) Mom has said that if she had more time we'd
go for more hunting titles, some obedience titles, and some agility
titles. I'm game if she ever gets around to it.
One of my very favorite things to do is go into the big pool swimming.
I'd swim all day if they'd let me. I always talk Dad into letting me
swim with him. I'm the only one he lets do that. I just bat my long
eyelashes at him and bark "Please". When he says okay I jump straight
up into the air.
