Sometimes a blind pig finds a TRUFFLE!

Our Coton de Tulear is named Truffles. She is a rescue dog from Dallas, Texas. The good people of the rescue shelter saved her from an abandon house and she had very rough start in life. They cured her of the mange and saved her life. We had no idea what breed she was at first but the first clue was when she began walking around on her hind legs when you came into the room. My wife believed she was some sort of Poodle. The second clue was that she smells good, that there is no doggy odor. The third was that her fur is so very soft and fine and grows and grows. The fourth is the vocalizations as she makes funniest grunts however she has a loud bark. Not at all a yappy dog but she barks for a reason. Some clue to her previous life is that she barks at doorbells on the television. Her age is uncertain and her teeth are very dark which is another trait that is listed of the Coton.

Truffles is so very good nature and has a companion dog named Shiloh who also was rescue puppy that is a Jack Russell - Pug mixed breed. They really get along great together and never have any friction. We always had large breed breed dogs and these are the first small breed dogs we have owned. This now really seems the way to go. The two of them always stay close but are not really needy. How did a Coton de Tulear get found in Texas and now lives in Seattle? Well, Sometimes a blind pig finds a Truffle.
