Guinness, the Dog of the Day
Name: Guinness
Age: Two years old
Gender: Female Breed: Australian Shepherd
Home: Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada
 
   I was adopted one year ago and am fitting in well at my new home. I was named after my parents' favorite beer (although I don't care for it myself)! My goal in life is to go fast. Mountain biking, swimming and X-country skiing are my favorite outdoor activities. I love racing up & down the hills with my dad! Throw me anything....and I will catch it (preferably a frisbee that I can jump for because I like to show off) and I will bring it right back to you and place it in your hand for the next throw.

    Give me a command and I will know what to do (because my mom taught me this in all those obedience classes... boring). I am also learning agility and flyball but I think agility is where it's at, mostly because it makes my mom so excited. I love all seasons but I think winter is my favorite because I like eating snow and I don't have to worry about the bears. I love playing with children and people in general, but sometimes I'm wary of other dogs getting too close to my parents! I'm learning to "be nice" and "go say hi" and eventually I will get better at this. At the end of an exciting day, I enjoy a movie and relaxing on the couch with my fleece toys nearby. Ahhh....life couldn't get much better than this.
