Mai, the Dog of the Day
Name: Mai
Age: Six years old
Gender: Female Breed: Doberman Pinscher
Home: Dunsmuir, California, USA
 
   I wanted a dog that didn't require a lot of grooming and hearty enough to walk old logging roads and trails without running off. Mai is that and more. She has become quite a companion and friend. She is one of three of our dogs but she is the smartest and the most insightful.

    She likes to go outside when she knows there are some trails to explore and some protecting to do. When we are out walking she always knows where I am and I cannot change direction on her without her being right there at my side. She loves to hit the trail in any kind of weather but in bad weather at home I have to go outside with her to make sure she doesn't do her business under the patio roof.

    She is very social in a lot of ways. Every time she meets another dog she has to play bow, and she loves to go to public dog parks and play chase with the other dogs. She loves to be with the grandkids. When we go RV-ing she is the first one in the truck.

    She craves comfort and warmth when in the house. She would be the best lap dog in the world if my recliner were big enough for her 80 pounds, and she has tried to be a lap dog.
