For those who know me & my dogs, Camp Merilegs is
a synonym for a bunch of spoiled-rotten dogs who get
very dirty while having tons of fun. It's not the "fun"
part that gives my friends palpitaions; it's the "dirty"
part. Well, I guess dirty dogs don't bother me. In fact, if
a dog is covered in mud from digging & swimming &
running around, then that dog must be happy. And that
warms my heart.
My philosophy regarding dogs is that they need to
be dogs.
This means doing the things that dogs love,
including getting dirty. This does pose problems when
trying to  maintain "show-coat" & necessitates that
"Mom" change the furniture coverings every day.
...Oh well. Small price to pay.
They run, they play, they dig in the dirt, they
swim in the pond, they eat dirt & bugs,
hunt chipmunk & snakes & frogs & fish, chase
bubbles & balls,
zoom down TurboSlide and sometimes leave
space for Mom in the bed & on the couch.
They also, on occasion, perform well in the
show/agility/obedience ring.
They’re HappyHappyHappy-BusyBusyBusy!
They’re Merilegs Cockers-and-a-Norfolk!

Just Glynis
Spayed Norfolk Terrier
Born 4/23/95
My Mom waited on a breeder's list for 2 years before
finally bringing her home as an 8 week old pup.
She's a true Terrier.
Ornery, feisty, naughty, oozing personality! Lives for the hunt & the kill.
Favorite pastimes: digging for chipmunks, leaping into the pond to catch frogs,
slaughtering anything smaller than she is, being carried around upside down.
(That gleam in her eye comes from her ecstasy
in just killing a garden snake.)
She has taught Madeline & Sarah how to dig like pros.
TheBigDig was originally created just for her.
