Favourite toys are balls. She likes to retrieve. Lizzie is
also fond of games involving tug-o-war.
Unlike her mother she loves to be outside in the cold of winter.
It doesn't bother her at all.
Lizzie (like me) is scared in the dark. She turns into a true
guardian in the dark. Everyone and everything is suspicious.
She keeps track of other people in the dark and is very wary
of them, if they come too close she growls. The other night she
woke the whole house telling us of the strange couple who had
an heated argument outside our house...
Lizzie loves people in daylight!
Cats are so far not considered as prey, but they certainly
are unwanted intruders. The neighbours cats often choose our
porch for the night and it makes Lizzie crazy, she is very loud
when chasing them off and huffs and puffs for a long time afterwards.
Lizzie and her mother Omni usually charms everyone but this
week we had visitors not used to sighthounds, and they were intimidated
by the Silkens way of greeting them by trying to kiss them in
their faces. They thought this behaviour was very unpleasant
and scary. They felt threatened by the inquisitive stares into
their eyes by curious dogs.
Well, you can't please everyone I guess :-)
