A DOG'S CHARACTER

Written By: Hans Appel

“The more I learn about PEOPLE,
​the more I like my DOG”
-Mark Twain
​

I’m a dog lover!  I’ve had dogs my entire life.  I’m that guy who enjoys seeing pictures of other people’s baby puppies.  I make no apologies... ​

There’s nothing I enjoy more than coming home to my baby Sheltie (similar to miniature Collies for those non-dog people).  Shelties come from a long line of worker dogs who are very smart and originally were trained to herd sheep. They require lots of exercise, attention, and time.  And that’s fine by me, because I love them unconditionally. My 6 year old Maya loves to go on daily walks. Each day, my wife and I take Maya for at least a 3 mile walk.  Sometimes we go 5-6 miles and on occasion we take her 10+ miles...she’ll walk as long and as far as we choose to go. Sometimes we both take her while other days, it's only one of us.  But Maya walks EVERYDAY, rain or shine! ​
