The "Great Smokey Lady" became
a member of our "pack" last April. She was 10 1/2 months old then and a
huge ball of fur with two beautiful black eyes gazing at her new surroundings.
She bounded out of her crate and into our hearts and has never stopped
making us smile since.
Oma is poetry in motion. We've never seen a dog actually kick up her
heels but this gal pulls her tail right over her back , throws out her
back legs and kicks them out to the side! This is especially so when we
hit the beach. A desert dog this? hmmm - we wonder as we watch her race
the waves and stand perfectly still while the undertow pulls the sand from
beneath her paws.
Oma is a quiet gal and everyone admires her beauty but she'll have nothing
to do with "them", only her family! Hunting rats and squirrels, chasing
cats, patrolling her property, walking and playing, Oma awakens each day
with a bounce and a look that says let's go and do it all over again! |
