Because One Doggy Just Isn’t Enough

We adopted another dog! The new one is a Cocker Spaniel mix. She weighs about 14lbs and won’t get much bigger because of whatever she’s mixed with. But she still has the most adorable hair on her ears and tail. And she’s got a very interesting personality. One of my sister’s friends commented that she didn’t know dogs had such strong personalities of their own.
She runs and jumps and licks and walks (yes, on two feet!) and almost always has a wagging tail. When she sees people she’s suspicious of (which is most of the people she sees, LOL) she barks or howls, and may even approach them. But, she never bites and always runs away if said person starts coming towards her. To put it simply, she’s all bark and no bite. But she’s just the most wonderful bundle of joy.
She shakes violently when she’s anxious (or scared, or both…), like for the first two days when we took her home. Then there was the day we took her to the vet (maybe she thought we would leave her?), and then today when we gave her a bath for the first time. And you should see the way she dries herself off! My mom had her in towels and put her on the bed so she could blow-dry her hair (because it’s not really fur) and she just started rolling around to dry her ears, back, belly, tail, etc. You would think she had epilepsy if you saw it. My new $10 phone doesn’t have video recording, so I can’t let you guys see for yourselves. 
But trust me, it is a sight to behold!
She also has a jealous streak. If I’m petting the Pekingese, or putting on her collar, or taking it off, or doing anything for her, this little quirky Cocker Spaniel comes and moves my hand with her head or feet and lick them ferociously until she’s the center of attention. Can you say spoiled?

So adorable! One of the first dogs I ever had was a cocker spaniel named Ginger. They are such sweet dogs and when I was younger I thought some mean person had cut off my dogs tail. I had no idea cocker spaniels had short tails by nature. XD
