Xena, the Dog of the Day
Name: Xena
Age: Eighteen months old
Gender: Female Breed: Belgian Shepherd, Husky Mix
Home: Glastonbury, Connecticut, USA
 
   This is my dog Xena. She is an eighteen-month-old Belgian Shepherd/Husky mix and we believe her father was a Rottweiler. She lives with us in Glastonbury, CT, USA. My family and I had been wanting a dog for so long, when we found an ad for six puppies, we drove off to find them. We were in the car for over an hour before we found the farm where the puppies were. Xena was the only one left! We decided to bring her home because she was pretty small for ten weeks (we later found she had only been eight weeks) and her mother was around forty pounds. Well, here we are with a 75 pound crazy dog on our hands. Xena believes she's as small and dainty as our cat and although she tries to be good, she can't resist nipping interesting people and running about madly once in a while. I think it's worth all that to have a cuddly friend you can snuggle with and who will always forgive you and cheer you up.
