07/04/11 update: Sammi was adopted by our friends, and we still get to see her. She is one happy, spoiled girl. She grew to be about 55 pounds and still very lean. We still don’t know what she is mixed with. I posted a new photo of her at the bottom of this post – all grown up!

Our foster pet dog is here.

Sammi is about the cutest pet dog I’ve ever seen. I don’t know exactly what she is mixed with, but I am guessing mostly American pit bull terrier with some smaller terrier like a Jack Russell. She seems to be all terrier to me anyway! generally she is a tiny pitbull. She is about a third of Ace’s size and very, very skinny. She didn’t want to eat her breakfast this morning because there were too lots of new things to smell and see, but I will be trying to put a lot more weight on while she is with us.

Sammi will make the best pet dog for someone. I have only had her for a few hours, but I can already tell she is a very, very great dog. Sammi is not very old, maybe 10 months at the most. but so far no accidents in the house, and she doesn’t chew anything but her own toys.

You can see Ace is avoiding Sammi in the photo. That is normal of Ace when I bring in a new dog. He warmed up to her shortly after we went for a run and then went home. Both dogs have been playing nicely with their toys and having a terrific time. Ace was being possessive over the toys, however! For once, my pet dog is the dominant one.

Anyway, it is crazy in Fargo with the Red River flooding. I have a lot going on, but I will update you soon on how Sammi is doing.
