Puppyness...

My friend got a new puppy. She's been thinking about adding a new dog to her farm for some time. She wanted a special sort of dog. One that would protect their property, guard the livestock and be a good companion.
She settled on this guy. He is a breed many have never heard of; a Black Mouth Cur. She named him "Lick." (Lick-Cur... = Liquor. Get it?) I am in love with the little dude. He is all wrinkled forehead and big feet and sweetness. He reminds me a lot of my special Doberman, Loki. There is something about him that is tells me he is going to be one heck of a good dog. While he grows into his job of guardian and protector, I get to rub his smooth belly and kiss his little furrowed head. He is warm velvet under my lips.
