LOL don't get me wrong.. I just wanted to check. I know AKC says on thing, but I also know that dogs are like people... they come in all shapes and sizes. Both Dale and Gidget are AKC but Chip is not. Personally I don't care either way, I have no plans to ever show or breed.
I LOVE all three of my little ones and nothing could ever change that. They are part of our family. My husband laughs at me because sometimes I go to bed before him.. when he comes in I am sound asleep with all three of them cuddled up with me.. I walk in the door and all three are right there and have to say hello to me first.. In the evening when I read in my chair all three of them are there with me..
