Sugar came to us about 14 years ago...we agreed to keep her for a few weeks while my best friend got settled in a new place. Now, we can't imagine life without her....she's quite comical looking...with a huge underbite, bulgey eyes, a fang that sticks almost straight out and hair that's like wire and sticks in all directions. She's old and crotchety and will sit in your lap for hours. Avery thinks she's beautiful and dresses her like a princess. 
Wrangler is her son....we thought she came to us already spade and saw no signs of heat for 10+ years....until a friendly Australian Shepard dug under the fence and seduced her. We were very nervous because she was older and had never had puppies before...but she did wonderfully and was a great mom. Wrangler is our bull-in-a-china-shop....running into and over everything, constantly pushing his mom out of the way and knocking her down. What he does, he does with great abandon....it would be hard to find a happier dog than he is. Avery thinks he's perfect and dresses him like a cowboy. She spends hours "training" him to jump over laundry baskets and piles of books. Two dogs....two kids....2 turtles and 3 hamsters...."they" out number us but we wouldn't have it any other way.
