6. That is funny because I have 3 dogs! Two are really big,
but it is my mini-pin who is by far the most demanding!! :)

3. min pin is my choice for my next dog
I have a couple senior dogs who will break my heart when they cross Rainbow Bridge

I'll need a puppy bad

Min Pin is my first choice and (lucky for me) there is a breeder 1/4 mile down the road....

go for it, they are the sweetest little things :pals:

9. i had a min-pin who ran off a few months ago. i miss him terribly
if you get one, watch him like a hawk, they have a reputation as 'escape artists'

13. I think they have built in springs!
The place where I board my Lolly wanted me to put in those agility/racing competitions. I never did though! She would have been good if she were a little more disciplined!

14. i never felt like Rocky had the aptitude for competition. he just wanted a lap a scratch and walkies
and as long as he didn't crap in the house, that was good enough for me.

16. Unfortunately my Lolly has reverted back to her puppy ways!
Every now and then I find a nice little surprise in the hallway!! She is getting old I guess! There is a doggy door that is always open, but if she doesn't want to go out, I guess she just isn't going to go out!! Stubborn little thing!

19. Awww, YAY!!!

Congrats on your new friend. It seems like a done deal. :bounce:

I remember reading about the loss of your last pooch -- this one will never replace him, but i think he will bring you lots of happiness nonetheless. :hug:


And... you'd better post pics!!! :D
