Ginger, age 3

I’m a 3½-year-old Dalmatian. In dog years, I’m just the right age. You may see me riding around in the car with my mom. Car rides are like Dog TV to me. If I’m lucky, she’ll roll down the windows so that I can see a squirrel, a levitating trash bag, or worse, a beast on a leash. My pets, James and David, will sometimes play “Hide and Seek” with me. I stay on the stairs until they hide; then I go find them and get a treat. I sometimes get a treat just for playing my “Cute Card.” I have trained my parents well. It has taken a lot of work, but I have overcome! Sometimes I think I should write a book entitled, “Ruling the House by Your Favorite Princess.” If only I had thumbs!
