I can truly say that
Shiloh picked me as his Mistress.
And I am very happy that he did! He is the firstborn of my first litter. As
soon as he was walking, he began to follow me around the house…and he hasn’t
stopped. The other five litter mates would be running, playing and tumbling
over my husband, David. Shiloh would sit next to me and watch whatever I was
doing, waiting patiently for me to stoop and hug him. I had no choice but
to keep him…he decided for us!
He continues to follow me around the house and yard. He lays down
behind me while I am cooking (I have become an acrobat with pots and pans).
He lays against my feet when I am sitting in the family room, pushes open
the door when I am in the bathroom (no privacy in my house!). He even curls
up on the bed next to me (pushing the comforter “just so” and using David’s pillow). He is so well trained (he doesn’t
use my pillow).
His favorite activity outside is chasing squirrels and his mother,
Tarah. I enjoy watching his antics. He hides behind a 4” sapling (not very
well). Wiggles his bottom in the air and dashes for his mom. She is never
surprised. The squirrels just yell back at him from the safety of the trees.
He even cornered a big white tom cat once. It was hissing with arched back
and flattened ears. Tarah was in the house yelling at Shiloh to finish the
intruder, and there was Shiloh…bottom in
the air bounding back and forth inviting Mr. Cat
to play!
His favorite activity in the house is ME. He lets me hug and kiss
him every chance I get and STILL keeps following me around asking for more.
He is the best Canaan dog, and he is
mine (mmm...OK in truth, I am his).
