Right now we have Glory, a Papillion, who is smart, opinionated, and very independent. She does follow me everywhere and has a bed in the office and in my sewing room. She is where I am. I love her dearly, but don't think I would have another one. I would love to have another yellow lab. We had Chad who was loving and protective. He was killed by a neighbor who was scared of him. I miss him and he's been dead over 15 years.
