Our doggy

When we got Iceis from the shelter in Clarksville, TN she was only 3 months old. I don't have many pictures of her, because my Laptop crashed once and I lost everything.

They told us she is a hound mix probably with a beagle. She does really look like a Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. Well I don't know for sure, but who does except of a DNA test. ha ha

We traveled with her to: Hattiesburg MS, Gulfport MS, Gatlinburg TN, Jack Daniels Raffinery in TN, Germany.

I have a lot of pictures of Iceis but of course I can not post all of them.

She is a hound that is for sure, she likes to sniff and follow her nose. She once was running loose and saw a deer in the woods, well you can imagine what happened next. We were lucky, my dad found her deep in the woods, close to a fence barking at a deer that jumped over. When she is following her nose she is not hearing nothing else it is sensless. I am very careful now.

She doesn't like strangers, she has to get to know them. The beginning is always the same, growling, barking. Most people wrong reaction is oh she will calm down right and when she does, they think they can look into her eyes and try to pet her with the arm above her head. She still doesn't feel safe and will either growl or most of the time she just wants to snap. She did this 3 times already but didn't catch their hands, thank God.

I always tell people not to come to close but some think they know everything. Not every dog is nice to everybody.

These characteristic are common in Ridgeback another reason for her to be a mix.

Here some pictures:
