The Dogs I Own

These have been floating all around the internet recently, so I thought it was time to make my own. You see, many people - the general public - think terriers (of any breed) are naturally nasty. Fellow dog owners, who are more clued up on dogs, but still don't know too much about terriers, assume they are diggers, who slip down the nearest hole and pull out rats, even if they're just family pets. I sometimes become pulled into the agility scene, thinking my dogs are born agility dogs. But really, this is all wrong, when it comes to my truly adoring dogs.

Really, my two Border Terriers are just soft, loveable and dream dogs to me - my very best friends. And although terriers can carry certain traits, just as all dogs and breeds can, they are their own dog. They are the kindest, softest, and most adoring little dogs I could ever wish for. Yes, they are good at agility, and yes, they wouldn't say no to digging if I let them, but actually, they are my two, best friends, by my side all the time. They are not nasty, and will give anyone a warm hug, given a second's chance. They do agility for me, and love it, yes. They would rather stick with me than bury themselves down a hole, although I'm sure they would with a chance! I actually own two, amazingly loving dogs, who are loyal and incredibly loving.

P.S. I did not take the top two photos.
