Susan's Story
I've got a few pictures of my dog, so I guess I'll tell you about him. He is a mini Pomerain and his name is Pippin. I really lucked out when I got him.
A couple days after the superbowl I was talking to my boss about getting a dog. As I live in an apartment, I didn't want to get a big dog, though I love big, stupid mutts. My boss told me that he had a small dog he was looking to find a home for. He had a couple of pictures that he showed me, and I decided to meet the little guy.
My parents were on vacation at the time and I was house-sitting for them. It wasn't really necessary as my youngest sister still lives at home, but at the time she didn't drive. Since we were riding to work together we both went to see the dog, who at the time was called Puffy. It was a little like a mad house. Three dogs, two birds, a cat and four people chattering away.

I took him home to my parents' house that night. I hadn't intended to, but I fell in love with the little guy. I renamed him Pippin because he was the smallest dog I'd seen and Pippin had been the smallest Hobbit in "The Lord of the Rings". At the time I got him he only weighed two and a half pounds.
I got Pippin from my boss but his daughter had rescued him from his former owners. If I had not taken Pippin in, he would have gone to a shelter. Pippin had proven a sweet and loyal companion, if a little possessive. When he came to my boss, and through him to me, from an abusive home. He's still a little weary of strangers and he snaps at fingers he believes will take something from him. He is sweet and amusing and remarkably patient with the shutterbugs in my family who like to take his picture.
