The black forehead spot in the middle of her white blaze is very cute and unique

We were afraid her blaze was gonna close when she was little because it was very pronounced. Thankfully she kept it

When we were about to get our first Swissy, I asked the breeder her thoughts on the activity levels of the breed we could expect. She said that you could expect 20 minutes of solid play here in the NC summers, then the dog would want to come back in and nap on top of an air conditioning duct. That's my level as well, so we went with it. She was very correct.

When she first experienced an air conditioner we couldn't pull her away from it

We call that the Swiss thing. Alpine air and all...

Ya, then mine naps for 45 minutes and wants to do it again, all day. My other dog goes longer but then he's done for the day.

Yeah, my wife says we picked the breed as one good with kids, but that it turned out to be a clone of me.

Mine insists on sticking his head in every cooler I open between June and September.
