Cookie, the Dog of the Day
Name: Cookie
Age: Unknown
Gender: Female Breed: Siberian Husky
Home: Madison, Wisconsin, USA
 
   Cookie can eat a whole pizza in under five minutes and doesn't mind when I dress her up in Halloween costumes :) Cookie had been to four different foster homes before she came into my life. She was actually scheduled to be euthanized the week I adopted her. After a little bit of work and a lot of love, she has become my angel dog. She knows when I am sad, and even has "predicted" a couple of big events in my life. At least I think so! I can't imagine what life would be like without her...a whole lot more empty, I think! She knows quite a few tricks besides the basic ones... Cookie knows how to play dead, she will howl on command and plays "horsey" with my little nephew (by letting him ride on her back)... She loves to pull me on my roller blades like the sled dog that she is, and has a habit of becoming the canine pinball machine when she is excited (she runs up on the walls off, banking off the furniture:) She's a cat-dog. She grabs things with her paws, likes to play with yarn balls and stretches like a cat. She also hates it when I talk on the phone, and barks to interrupt me when she thinks I've been on too long. She's a sweet, and very affectionate, kissy dog - but has a sense of humor. I swear she's messing with me on purpose sometimes and she can act positively clownish. I really could go on forever about my dog. I've taken some hundred or so pictures of her and have a couple of full 8mm video cassettes of her because she acts so goofy sometimes. She is the best dog ever...really!
