Spicy is only 5 pounds which is really small for this breed. Normally they range from 10 to 15 pounds.
Spicy isn't a yapper at all, but she will definately let me know if someone or something is near the house. I can't believe how well she hears. She isn't a high energy girl either. In her earlier years she loved to play ball and such, but not now.
If you don't mind the shedding, then they would be a wonderful addition to any family. They shed like crazy. I use a slicker on Spicy twice a day and vacuum every other day. She gets a teaspoon of Shed-Relief every day that cut her shedding in half since I got her, and I don't bathe her but every couple of months since their coat tends to be on the dry side. Here are some pictures of my little girl: |
Spicy is adorable! And so tiny, aw!
Where did you rescue her from? I'm so happy her eye sight is back. That is totally amazing what they can do these days.
