Baby, the Dog of the Day
Name: Baby
Age: One and a half years old
Gender: Female Breed: German Shorthaired Pointer,
Plott Hound mix
Home: Spokane, Washington, USA
 
   Her dad bought Baby for $25 and she was the last one of the litter. She was so sick with worms when we first got her that we almost had to put her down, but she is a fighter and she survived. She is great with kids and she is very gentle. She know several commands, including going to the bathroom on command (this helps when we are on vacation and in a rush to get back on the road). She loves to go scare birds out of the brush and fields, and would otherwise be an awesome hunting dog - except she is afraid of guns.

    She notices when things are out of place and will let you know by barking at it until you put it back where it is supposed to go. When we rearranged our living room she wouldn't even go in it for about a month until she got used to it. She definitely has her own personality, but we love her tremendously. We do not have any human children, so she is like our child. She is very spoiled. We love her and she loves us. She is the best companion, friend, and even dog that I have ever known, and I am glad her dad brought her home that day!
