Domino - Wintersmorn Breeze

A very loyal girl, who will be 8 years old in November. We drove all the way to Nottingham (twice) to choose and bring her home. We had no idea what a challenge she would be, she was such a cute puppy. She still thinks she's a puppy and will steal the children's soft toys and run around the garden with them. She definitely owns us rather than the other way round and has a bit too much to say for herself.

She gets excited at anything, from me going to outside to hang out the washing to putting on my walking boots. She loves being in the garden but not unless there's someone out there with her. Her favourite pastime is chasing the Jackdaws and pigeons out of the garden so they don't steal all the food for the small birds (that's probably not the reason she does it), but she's never caught a bird.

She loves people and she remembers who will let her jump and wash them all over. She knows which visitors are likely to have a dog biscuit in their pocket and will not leave them alone until she gets one. She loves going for walks with her friends, running on the beach and digging holes is great fun. She will walk miles and will not stop until we do, here she is after a good 7 mile walk.

We all love Domino, she is a beautiful and loving dog and always much admired by others.
