Here are the highlights of BrownStone Cascade Mt. Loowit - Tule Loowit's life right now as told by her humans:
She adores visits with her favorite Sibling and friend Trask, and cries when
we leave. Her behavior is naughty when they are together.
She has enjoyed several trips to Seattle, Canada, Ashland, Bend and various
parts of California. She loves it if her cousin Wyatt the smooth haired collie
is in the car too
Her favorite activity is hunting squirrels (she has caught several babies,
and one adult, to our horror)
Her second favorite activity is swimming. She has enjoyed swimming at Crater
Lake, Ashland reservoir, Columbia River, all the rivers near Eugene, Crescent
Lake and Waldo Lake.
She loves sleeping, especially if it is warm and cozy like a bed. She won't
sleep on the bed if we are both in it, though, even if we invite her.
She likes to eat slowly and while lying down, even if the bowl is raised
She has been to the top of Maiden Peak
She loves walks, but averages about 2 miles per hour. She is the laziest dog
ever and will never pull a sled.
She is the official Mt. Host Ski Patrol dog and likes to help with training
She loves toys
She extrapolated the "touch" command and now uses "touch" to ask for treats.
She starts by lightly touching your thigh with her nose and then stepping back
and looking at your eyes, but if you ignore her, the "touch" gets harder and
harder until she is practically ramming you with her nose. She will stop doing
it the instant you give her a certain hand signal, but if you fail to give her
that signal, she will be relentless in her efforts to get you to give her a
treat.
She is extremely polite. She has never tried to escape, even if the gate is
open. She knows she is not supposed to be out of the gate without a leash and so
she just stands there waiting.
She likes lying out in front of house and watching the world go by.
Because Greg, Riley and Nick all have skateboards and motorcycles, she LOVES
all skateboards and motorcycles and always looks up and wags when she hears one
go by.
People-food is safe around her, which is a blessed relief from our last dog
who ate an entire pizza and a ham, not to mention part of a turkey.
She is the love of our lives and we feel so thankful to be her family. She
lives a blessed life and makes ours more blessed in return.
