My
name is Lady, and I am a Weimaraner. Weimaraner is a type of dog that
is originally from Germany. I live with my handler Ann-Margaret in Dallas,
Texas. Ann-Margaret is a Special Agent with the FBI, and she adopted
me after I had been hit by a car. She thought that I would make a good
search dog, and she was right!!
It took me a while to break in
my new handler, but we really get along well. You see, sometimes I can
be pretty stubborn and want to get my own way, which isn't always the
best for me. So my handler took me to obedience school and we learned
how to work with each other. I have attended two schools which have
taught me and my handler how to search for missing persons and for evidence.
I still have alot to learn since I've only been doing this type of search
work since April of 2000. Sometimes I get to work with Dallas FBI's
Evidence Response Team. It is so nice to be a part of a team!
My
handler and I like to run and play together, and when I am good, I get
treats! Every night we walk or run three miles together, even in the
rain, so I can get my exercise which my handler tells me is important.
After our exercise, I like to eat ice to cool down. Sometimes my handler
gives me baths, which I don't like very much. Do you like to take baths?
Sometimes I make people laugh by the silly things I do, and that makes
me feel good. It's always great to be able to do good things for others,
no matter how big or small.
I hope that I might get a chance
to meet you someday, because I really like kids and want to be friends.
Be good! Licks and smooches.
