Please can I play???


"I promise I won't eat the pieces!"

Quinn loves to be involved in everything we do. No matter where we are or what we are doing she wants to get right in and check out everything. She is so curious and fearless. It is such a change from Snickers.

Snickers has always been a very independent dog. She enjoys being with her people, and loves a good cuddle, but will do her own thing and check-in every now and then. As she aged she started hanging out with us more but it is still always on her terms as she has become a bit fickle in her old age.

Quinn on the other hand always gets in there like a dirty shirt. If we are cooking she sits under our feet (also handy for and falling crumbs ;)), when I get dressed, do laundry, make the bed ... she is right there...always! Sometimes her puppy playfulness gets the best of her and she just has to have some fun. This generally consists of stealing an item of clothing or grabbing a blanket and rolling around in it with her legs flailing around in the air. Even when it comes to loud noisy tasks, Quinn shows no fear. We were using a skill saw one day in the backyard, which makes quite a loud noise, Quinn stopped for a second and then made a beeline towards us to investigate (don't worry she was not allowed to get anywhere near moving parts!). No fear ... she just wants to investigate everything!

Her inquisitiveness just adds to her bigger than life personality!
