I am not sure how many of my readers are animal lovers but I am. I totally adore my little Cairn Terrier and despite what everyone said about how horrible of animals they were I wanted one. I knew no other breed would do. Yes, I have kids and I knew it would mingle fine. I knew I would make it work. When I joined the rescue group 3 years ago I never imagined that I would end up with Sparky though. That was his given name that we kept. He’d been through enough. At 11 months old he had been abandoned and left in a home that was to be foreclosed on by the family that owned him. With a microchip in him and being full breed we contacted the puppy mill (yes I hate them places) and got his complete background so as I could care for him properly. This sweet pup was light of my life from the day I met him. He’s so calm and yes, he does have the sassy demanding qualities of the Cairn, but I love those character traits. He begs and he is persistant. He doesn’t give up. Although he is NOT a barker. He is a begger. He poses so cute for things, it’s just adorable. He of course gets his way. He knows when he is sassy and I say kennel, he goes. Anyhow, the point of my post is, today I was looking online for information about sleeping habits and patterns. I had always wondered why he sleeps with the head to our feet and his butt to our head and always back to back with me. Well I guess this is a TRUE sign that he understands that I am the dominant one in the pack and that he is not. He also sleeps back to back for that reason, but also because this is a “hot spot” on humans. He is very warm there. He is such a smart dog!! I love him so much!! He’s got his head on the corner of my laptop right now… LOL What a character!!
BTW: I strongly encourage any of my animal loving blog readers to NOT watch the movie Marly and Me. That movie broke my heart. I can’t believe that movie! *sigh* It made me so sad. Hug your furbaby!!
