Spike, the Dog of the Day
Name: Spike
Age: Four years old
Gender: Male Breed: Corgie, Himerlyn mix
Home: Crawley, West Sussex, United Kingdom
 
   We took Spike into our hearts two years ago from the RSPCA. He's a cross between a Corgie and a Himerlyn - I had never heard of this breed before and only found one website in the whole wide world that features dogs called Himerlyns, but they're apparently a breed of Tibetan origin.

    He's adorable in the house and very nice with humans however we have had to get a few manuals on dog behavior has he has 'little dog syndrome' - he tends to be a little 'pushy' with larger dogs.

    He loves his morning toast and walk. In the evening, we can't help but treat him to a little titbit. We're now starting to make him earn his rewards, however, simply by sitting, waiting, lying down, etc. He likes playing this game. We love him dearly. He's our little big star!
