I guess prolly one of my favourite members of my families "clan" is Aurora, she's my 2.5yr old, 14 inch, red miniature poodle.. I've had her since she was 19 months, she's still my baby! She can't stand it if there are other dogs getting attention, and she's being ignored, I'm still working on the "manners" part of life with her, she's better than when i got her, but we gotta a looonnngggg way to go! 
Aurora, AKA: rugrat, loves sleeping at the foot of my bed, keeping my feet warm, really nice in the winter. Rugrat loves snow, but hates getting wet; she loves to eat snow too...
Rug's favourite activity is going for hikes with me, we both love to go for a good walk! Idunno how I've managed over two months without her, I still miss her like crazy, but in 19 days I will be home with her again!
