What these letters mean →View Full Embark Panel →About Abby
Abby has a smooth, shiny chocolate and tan smooth coat. She has an independent streak, as she loves to go exploring, but then when she has satisfied that curiosity, she's as big of a snuggle bug as any of her house mates. She's also quite intelligent or is it sneaky? Whichever, she seems to always find a way to slip into the back bedrooms to come find that special cuddle time.
Personality
She is a fun bundle of energy! She loves to play with her toys and the other doxies, but will periodically run over and tap you to check in. She loves to cuddle and to burrow under the covers with you. She loves to lay in the sun spots or under any blanket.
