Well, hello, there. This is Ace, my min-pin granddog. I am staying at my daughter's house to take care of my grandchildren but Ace comes with the rest of the family. It is fairly well know that I am not a dog person. Actually, I am not much of an animal lover in general. I am fine with them from a distance. It is up close where it gets, well, hairy.
I had a pet dog when I was a teenager. He was a black dachshund named Tiny. I loved him dearly and cried a bucket of tears when he came to an unfortunate end while chasing a "girlfriend."
When our girls were young, we had a cocker spaniel named Heather who had a liter of puppies. We kept an especially cute one we named Speedy. Cocker spaniels are not the smartest breed nor are they the best dogs to have on a farm. Heather and Speedy both got a little too close to the busy road in front of our house. That was the end of our dog ownership.
So, I am here with Ace while the kids are away at school. We have established an easy working relationship. I take care of him and he doesn't lay in my lap. I even gave him a tiny bit of scrambled egg yesterday. He is growing on me.
