Mariah is a shepherd malnois mixed pound
puppy. She had been
brought into the pound
along with nine of her brothers and sisters
at only 6 weeks of age. The
first I saw of her
was this teeny nose
and eyes sticking out from the bottom of a large pile of
puppy's.
I
remember
saying I want that one the one with the cute face. Little
did I
know at the time, how much expression that little face could
have. Especially when she
doesn't get her
way. She can
give you
the most demanding dirty looks that you have seen. But actually
she
is one
of the sweetest... "good natured" dogs that you could
ever hope to meet. They call the
Wind
Mariah and I am here to tell
ya, that is quite an
understatement. I was warned at
the time, that
to name your dog wind is to ask for it. <g> She fits her name
well.
Just like the wind she is as stormy and unpredictable as the gale
of a hurricane, but as gentle as a summer's Breeze
UPDATE:
Since I first made these pages three years ago...
wow
where does the time go to? I wanted to update each
page a bit.
Mariah has slowed down a lot in the last three years but is
still the
same sweet girl... just a bit older. For her age she can
still be
rather feisty when she wants to. <g>
Just last night she quickly
and gently showed my new puppy some manners. She
didn't
much appreciate having her head climbed all over. LOL
The Final Update: After a very long and happy life,
Mariah has
gone on to the Rainbow Bridge. I can gladly say she never
lost
her spunk, she was my little wind storm up until the very end.
The
house will seem just a little more empty without her.... I will
miss
her tremendously.
