Pumpkin is four or five years old, a whopping eight pounds of indeterminate breed and lots of fun. She might have a little poodle or terrier in there, but it’s hard to tell. She loves to cuddle up, but is equally happy just being in the vicinity of her favorite person. Currently that is me, but I’m sure she will easily transfer her affections to another kind person. She is fine with other dogs and cats. She is interested in playing with the other dogs, but cautious as the smallest at our house outweighs her by thirty pounds! This dog is no shrinking violet though; she will sound the alarm when she thinks there is an intruder. Pumpkin has lovely silky hair that appears to be of the hypo-allergenic variety.
