Sassy, the Dog of the Day
Name: Sassy
Age: Five years old
Gender: Female Breed: Australian Shepherd
Home: Woodstock, Georgia, USA
 
   I love Sassy to death. She was brought up as a show dog, and has won second in nationals, but she cannot show anymore, because she is now an "it". Her previous owners thought she was snobby, because she looked as if she was turning her nose up at all of the other dogs. She was really scared, and was just thinking that if she didn't see them they weren't there. They also thought that she liked to be extremely clean....They were totally wrong. She loves to get dirty, and I have to bathe her a lot, because she is like a special teddy bear to me and she sleeps in bed with me until she gets hot. I am such a heavy sleeper, she will bark and my father will wake and let her out. I wish he was a heavy sleeper and I were a light sleeper, because he gets very little sleep, because we have two cats.

    Sassy loves to play games that you would play with a baby human, but she has never been taught how to catch balls or frisbees. She is the affectionate type, although she is very shy. She is a little piglet, because she inhales her food, but she is my little piglet.
