Yes, that shaggy mop is the doggie I have decided to get.

This woman does this business out of her home..when I got there she didn't have all the dogs that she initially advertised for (Sailor wasn't there Jim!!)

Heidi was being kept inside because it turned out she was more agressive than they thought at first.

There were about 8 dogs in the kennel pen, all rather small and a good mix, AND mostly males.

One small beagle in particular who kept yelping and yapping and digging (no - go!!)

I walked around to the front of the house where the shaggy one (her name is Daisy-Dog) and slowly approached her.

At first, she barked at me so as I got closer I knelt down and held out my hand for her while talking to her in a calm , soft voice...slowly she came over to check my hand out and gave me a few nudges with her nose...then all of a sudden she rolled over on her back, with all four paws up in the air. So I did the obligatory belly-rub for her.

After a while I went to the back of the house to check out the other ones again...still no real reaction from the other little doggies.

So I went back to the front to see Daisy-Dog again...this time she approached me first, licked my hand, then my arm, then my cheek...then she sat down with her back against my leg and wrapped her front paws around my arm as if to say, "OK, I'm yours"....

So Daisy-Dog is the one who will come home with us.

TODAY hopefully the woman will get her to the vet to be fixed and then I bring her straight home with me when that is all done.

She is shaggy and does need bath, but mostly you can tell she needs and wants just a whole lot of love..
