Miniature Schnauzer, Buffy Noel on her 15th birthday
We met Buffy when she was just 1 day old. We bought her from a friend, so we have movies from her birth till the day she passed away on Nov 15, 2008. She had quite the personality. She was opinionated, she was bossy, she was loving, when Buffy gave me the Schnauzer look, I knew she wasn't pleased. She barked, roo'd, whinned, grunted, snorted & mainly a lot of her own personal schnauzer talk. She loved to dance and roll over. She was an escape artist. We had to go through 5 times of her escapes - once in Grand Teton Natl park when my 3 yr old granddaughter let her out the back camper door when she was just putting her outside like at grandma's house - only there was no fenced yard. We found her an hr later hearing her tags on her collar jingle. She was my life for almost 15 1/2 years. On her 15th birthday, my granddaughter was not happy with buffy when she kept getting her skirt off. Buffy's nickname was Buffasnuffaluffagus - or my husband called her snot dog or snottser!!!
