Why We Love Her

Miskeena is a total gem. We adore her. She is out of Rosie and Kyle and has taken on many of the traits between them, while bringing them out in her own way. She walks the line between cuddle buddy and sidekick: always ready to be your partner in crime, but who is perfectly content snuggling with you for a Sunday-afternoon nap.

From a breeding perspective, it looks like Miskeena is a personal trainer. She is fit and trim, muscular, but yet feminine and refined. If she were a human, she’d probably wear red heels and matching lipstick, with a classy black dress. 

 

 

Temperament & Personality

Miskeena is a total love. She’s confident, engaging, and easy to train. She loves people, greeting all the retirees on their walks, but is also fine at home, snoozing on the back patio when the sun is hot. She’s slightly more intense than some of the others, but not in an annoying way, she just doesn’t have time for small talk, and would rather spend her time discussing business and the economy.

Color

Miskeena is considered a Blue Tri Piebald (white with patching pattern). She carries chocolate on one side, allowing for 50% of her puppies to be chocolate or fawn, based on the sire’s coloring. All of her puppies will get the blue dilute gene from her, potentially creating blue pups if bred to a male who is blue or carries blue. Additionally, her tan points are cream, like milk in tea, rather than red or orange, she always looks classy. 

What She Brings to the Program

Miskeena has a beautiful build! She moves with grace and agility, just like a Rat Terrier should. She has a charm about her that she passes to her pups and they’re always sweet, cuddly dogs, with a lot of spunk. She’s a great mom, producing healthy puppies that she nurtures with her best. If you have a puppy of hers in your hands, she watches you like a hawk. 

She Loves Grandma

Miskeena lives with my mom, aka “Grandma.” She is slightly spoiled in the best way possible, as would happen when you live with Grandma. 

Grandma Cindi lives in a retirement community where Miskeena has become the beloved neighborhood favorite. She is quite the cuddle bug and loves to sit with Grandma while she falls asleep to some true crime–how you can fall asleep to murder is something that always fascinates me.

The cutest thing about Miskeena is how she actually watches TV with you. She’ll sit there on the couch, like a human, and follow the screen, she’s a particular fan of dramas, with a pinch of romance. 

Sparky is Her Best Friend

Living with Grandma, Miskeena’s best friend is Sparky, a neutered mix of a Shitzsu and English Springer Spaniel. Miskeena loves to sleep on him, finding him to be the most comfortable pillow. Sparky adores her and lets her run the show, following her lead on adventures of hunting sparrows in the yard and keeping tabs on the traffic in the neighborhood. 

While Sparky looks like a limosine, and is a little awkward with his short legs, he’s surprisingly athletic. We are pretty sure he tells all the other boys in the neighborhood that Miskeena is his younger, hotter girlfriend.
