Here's a link to my pictures of Addie (which I update at an alarming rate): http://www.facebook....8f20d468&type=1

Addie came into my life when she was 11 weeks old. She was a rescue from CRUSA. Her mom and dad along with 10 other Cairns (including 6 puppies) and 3 unborn puppies (Addie and her brothers) - a total of 15 Cairns - were rescued from a breeding facility in Missouri. Addie's mom was so tiny they didn't even know she was pregnant until a couple weeks after the rescue. She was born on 29 April 2011.

Here are a couple of videos of Addie attacking a reusable shopping bag. My mom brought it with her one day to see if I wanted it, and Addie decided it was hers! She always enjoys the non-toys better than anything I buy at pet stores.

I don't thing the bag will be reusable anymore. :P Addie is adorable. What a great life you have given her. I like the pic of her talking to her friends on Cairn Talk - is that her own laptop?

Addie just graduated from puppy school. Here is a ridiculous photo to prove it.

She starts intermediate training next week. She's growing up so fast!

I love pictures with tongues hanging out. They grow up fast. Addie is such a cutie.

Cute!... cuter!... and cutest! Addie is a barrel full, (or in this case, a shopping bagful) of laughs!

P.S. The little picket fences that you use to block off the rest of the room look really nice. Did you come up with that idea and put them together yourself or are they sold that way?

Addie has officially made the bag unusable, but has weaseled her way into my mom's heart so my mom's going to the store to pick up another bag for her.

And Addie LOVES watching other Cairns on YouTube. Especially when she can hear them bark.

Thanks Sanford. My dad's friend is a retired carpenter and he actually created them for my previous dog. My mom thought of it because of the awkward design of my hallway. They've come in really handy in areas (like where our hallway opens to our formal living room) where gates won't work but I need to keep Addie out. They're made out of a heavier 2x4 for the base (so the dog can't move them around easily), and then the pickets are nailed to the base. For support the pickets are staple-gunned to two long thin pieces of wood. I think he bought the pickets from a lumber company.

What a cute adorable fur baby! My little Baylee loves helping me empty/fill the dishwasher as well.

White fluffy wet stuff! Mom! There's white fluffy wet stuff!

We had our first snow a couple of weeks ago but it was less than an inch and melted by the end of the day, so Addie really didn't get to experience it. Today, however, a foot of it fell in our front yard. And Addie went NUTS. She thought it was the Best. Day. Ever. Hopping, skipping, jumping, tunneling, making Snow Addies, sticking her nose in it, eating it . . . I've never seen her having more fun. Here is a video I took of Addie enjoying her first real snow.

Love the photos and videos--your Addie is a DANDY! Like most Cairns she does love that snow--just laughed and laughed at her in the bag as well--now that is something my two avoid--plastic bags! Not Addie.

Addie graduated from intermediate dog training on the 6th of November. Here's another ridiculous graduation photo.
