A while back, Miss Debbie and her doggie Chance tagged me to play this game and answer a bunch of questions about myself. But I can't type and SuSu has been busy, so we're just now getting around to doing it. Here it is.
1. What breed are you?
I'm a Schnoodle; can't you tell? My doggie mama is a grey schnauzer and my doggie dad is a black poodle. My PopPop says that my schnauzer comes out way too often though.
2. How old are you?
I asked SuSu, and she said I was born on January 11, 2002, which makes me 6 going on 7.
3. What is your full name?
Sophie Belle Patterpaw Cleveland
4. Do you have any nicknames?
Soph, Googey, Monkey Dog, Sweet Time, Dog Dog, Little One (that's what Paul calls me), Queen of Castle Oaks (that's our subdivision), The Sophinator (Jesse gave me that one).
5. Where do you sleep?
Mostly on the back of the sofa. But really, anywhere I want to.
6. What is your favorite thing to do?
Ride with PopPop on the 4-wheeler. I also like to chase squirrels, play "stick," and get treats.
7. What is something unusual or interesting about you?
When I was 5 years old, I got sick. It was something called Hemolytic Anemia. I almost went to the Rainbow Bridge. I had hardly any red blood cells when I got to the doctor. I had to have blood transfusions and take jucky medicines. All my friends prayed for me (I was on our church's prayer list). That's when we met Dr. Rachel because SuSu and PopPop didn't think my old doctor had acted quickly enough. I love Dr. Rachel, but I don't like to go to see her because it makes me remember The Bad Times, when I was so sick. But I got well because she was such a good doctor and because everybody prayed for me (and because I'm a "tough cookie").
8. Who is your best friend?
I have too many friends to name them all, but I guess my PopPop is my best one. He takes me riding and we have all kinds of fun together. Here are some pictures of some of my other friends.
*************************************************************************************************
9. Did you go to obedience school...if so were you "Top Dog" or would you flunk out?
My PopPop taught me obedience. I learned real good. I'm very obedient--except when the schnauzer comes out. Like the time I ran all the way to Ziegler Rd. with PopPop chasing me or the time I jumped in the lake at Grover's house or the time I ate the fish bone while SuSu chased me all over Mr. Horace's ranch or the time...but now that I think of it, those were all things that Baby Sophie did. I'm much more better now.
10. Can you do any tricks?
I can play tricks--is that the same thing? I often tell SuSu that I haven't had my Cesar food yet when PopPop has already given it to me. SuSu says I'm playing a trick.
Now if you're reading this and you're a doggie, or if a doggie lives at your house (or even a cat, I guess), SuSu and I tag you to play along. Just post these questions on your blog and answer them, then tag somedoggie else if you like.
The End

Hola, Sophie! Gracias for tagging me, senorita! I am so glad you are still here and not playing on the other side of that Rainbow Bridge.
I like to sleep on the back of the couch, too!
Now I am going to write my own meme on my mamasita's computer.

Very cute interview. Our schnauzer liked to run off too and make us chase him so it must be a schnauzer thing.

Hi Sophie,
I like to sleep on the back of the sofa too. All the cushions of all the sofas are squashed down and dirty. I'm not allowed up on the new sofa, so Mom puts coat hangers on the cushions when she goes out. But sometimes she forgets.
Love,
Riley

HI Sophie and Susan,
We also have a schnoodle named Dusty. She came to our house last May. She is about 8 years old and has had to adjust to living with a cat as well as a grown up family.( She previously lived with a widower).While we only have son, two of his friends are here frequently so she has learned how to contend with 3 young adults, one middle aged couple and a cat.
Dusty is a bit of princess with attitude. She had never seen a cat before and was used to being the queen of all she surveys. Unfortunately for her, Mars is of the same opinion. It has made for some exciting confrontations.
Dusty is a bit touchy and does not like to be moved from her space. She is bit more grrreeee than we would like her to be-
We are learning what things bother her- that will trigger her grumpy behavior. On the plus side she is a real lap dog and enjoys being with us. She is learning how to walk on the leash when she goes for a walk. I think she is probably a bit old for obedience school.
She is looks lots like Sophie with the same coloring and has recently had her coat trimmed.
Dusty is particularly fond of treats - a kind of dog bacon strips.
We had a big dog before Dusty. Her name was Venus and we had to put her down last winter when she contracted an illness called canine bloat. Our son was quite devastated by her loss as we had had her since she was a puppy ( she was 11 and a half).
Dusty has her own interesting personality and we are learning to live compatibly with one another.
Our pets certainly keep life interesting.
Regards,
Anna

You and your family are very lucky to have each other.

I love this tag! Thanks so much for your blogging. Did I ever ask you what breed(s) Daisy is? I had a dog about 30 years ago that looked exactly like her. Miss that raggedly old pup still.
He would sit on his haunches and beg by saying, "Yum, yum, yum." He ran away before we could take him for a dog food commercial audition. I guess he wasn't falling for the bright lights and fame.
