Name: Miss Maddie (Kennel Name ~ Daydreams Splash of Magic)

Date of Birth:  May 4, 2001 

Breed:  West Highland White Terrier            

Location:  Barstow, California

Human Pet:  My Mom, Dad and hu-bro Benjamin 

Favorite Toy or Hobby:

My favorite toy is Mr. Pinky.  I've had him since I was a wee pup.  I gave it a face lift, a nose job and a tummy tuck.  My Mom and Dad said I did an overhaul operation on the poor dude but to me he looks perfect. My favorite hobbies are digging and taking mud baths.  Also, just getting in trouble in general ... that's my special talent.  I love to get dressed up and model fancy clothes.  I have lovely necklaces, hats, coats, dresses and kilts I love to wear. I wish I could be a star in a magazine someday.  One exciting day I won the Terrier Club Photo Contest for October 2004. And a lady wrote my mom and used the picture to paint me on her artwork.  That made me feel pretty special!  My favorite pass time activity is going on walks with my Cairn brother, Mr. Willie, and my westie sista, Emily.

Human Peeve:

Ok I have a small list about the humans.  It Bugs me when

1. They eat at the table and don't drop anything

2. Sleep too long and they know I must have breakfast right at 7:00am

3. And the most annoying is getting scolded for barking at the pesky cat that trespasses on our driveway.  I thought that was my job.?!! Mom said something about possibly breaking the front window.

Favorite Story About Yourself:

Last year I went to a benefit event for the Make a Wish foundation called Wags for Wishes.  I got to do my very first agility run there.  They had a fuzzy tail on a lure wire and I was to chase it around the track. So it was my turn and off I went but I tripped on the wire and it broke loose and went crazy flying up and down. It went under the net and I chased after it!  I jumped the mesh barrier and ran like the dickins where I wasn't supposed to.  My mom had to chase after me and I made her look pretty silly.  Then I went to a Westie race and a feisty Westie girl dog jumped and attacked me when I was trying to get to the finish line.  What a day.

Also I want to mention I have a boyfriend named Webster. I belong to the Terrier Club and one day a Westie boy of my dreams was pictured on there.  We live in the same state but haven't met yet.  But one day we will run together so we dream. 

Greatest Achievement (Personal or Professional):

I guess it would be my love for Earthdog Events. I am dog gone good at it. I got my Junior Earthdog title after just 5 runs.  Then I passed my Senior tests and now I am working on my Masters.  I also have my AWTA CG and I got a first place ribbon for speedy time and another first place for best score in my breed against 17 competing Westies.  And one judge told my mom I would make an excellent tracking dog as he said that he never sees Earthdogs track the scent as well as I did it.

Best Trick You Ever Played On Your Human:

I play tricks on them everyday but I am most proud of the time when I took down the whole front window draperies, blinds and curtain panels with one leap.  Oh boy you should of heard the racket it made. I pulled hooks and rods right out of the wall.  Never under estimate the power of a Westie.
