My Mom loves my big brown eyes.  They can look golden or dark depending how the light catches them.  It is my best feature, I confess, and the first thing you will notice about me. There are so many inspirational sayings about eyes but I really liked  this one fact sheet about brown eyes in particular because it described what Scotties are all about.  Here is a list of characteristics associated with brown eyes; see if you don’t agree: 1.) Attractive, 2.) Adorable, 3.) Trustworthy, 4.) Will do anything for the people who are special in their lives, 5.) Kind, 6.) Love to cheer people up, 7.) Great kissers, 8.) Very close to nature, 9.) Independent, and 10.) Mentally tough.  Yep, it’s us! ~ Indy

I was a chewer as a pup. I chewed baseboards, furniture legs, doors, door facings, and the deck.  As you can see, my substance of preference was wood.  My little puppy toys, you ask?  I still have most of them.  It was wood I craved.

Now, even though I am over three years old, I still enjoy a good stick. ~ Lucy

Mom loved Barney Bush. Barney loved golf balls and volleyballs;  it was rumored that he enjoyed watching a game of horseshoes but balls were his favorite.  He was the main star of the White House’s Christmas videos during the Bush administration and featured in many other Barneycam films along with Miss Beazley, his niece, who arrived in 2005.  Both of them battled lymphoma and have since crossed the Bridge. However, they remain part of presidential history in the archives: georgewbush-whitehouse.archives.gov.  Here they are on the White House lawn as Barney explains the rules of ball to the newcomer.  Below are my Brother and me.  He is not explaining anything. ~ Lucy

We got our monthly delivery from Barkbox this week.  It had the cutest little pair of boxing gloves in it; I immediately loved them and, of course, Brother did too.  We are like this with any toy.  I don’t care if there were ten of them; we always want the toy that the other is playing with.  It’s the Scottie way, Mom says.I have fun playing keep away from Brother but it is exhausting as you can see.

I hope you have enjoyed the highlights of our first three years.  Our posts will be current now with an occasional flashback.  They will mostly be a overflow from our Facebook page, The Adventures of Indy and Lucy, with additional pictures or a more lengthy commentary.  Mom hopes to include some information pertinent to the Scottie population. Our friend, Ruffles, often posts educational articles which Mom finds invaluable. It would be fun to introduce you to some of our friends too. Please visit often to see what’s happening.. ~ Lucy
