Snickers is 1 week shy of 6 months. She had her spouts of psycho dog where she would be a real bitch (she's a female dog, but I mean the other

) early on, but I'm not 100% sure if that was the puppy in her or the food. She's had a love affair with soft things since day 1! She loves the sofa and my bed and I bought a plush bed for each room of the house so she can be my shadow (her #2 favorite things next to belly rubs).

She's been on Orijen for 3 weeks (first week was about 50%/50% Orijen and Iams. She definitely is not hyper as you can see by my original post. I don't think there has been as much controversy of dog food since people started discussing politics and religion.
I posted some info Orijen sent me
here.
