Anika

Generally referred to as "Anika-brat" this little terrier dog was bought from the local pound when for some reason we felt we needed yet another animal in the house.  She is a cute although somewhat hyperactive animal whose bark would probably invoke fear in nobody, and whose only redeeming quality is her rather cute appearance.

When loose with the other dogs, she too will wander off into the neighborhood exploring the fascinating attributes of a local stream and the neighbor's trash.  We got Anika through the local Animal Shelter where she was apparently brought by a prior owner who was unable to take care of her.  I have found Anika to be a very personable dog, and amazingly able to take care of herself with much bigger and more powerful animals such as our German Shepherds.
