Piggy Back I have a 9 month old pure bred malamute by the name of Sabian. She is black & white predominantly and is the most beautiful animal in the world, boy does she know it. We picked her out as a 3 wk old puppy, brought her home when she was about 7 wks old and she has ruled our house ever since. She has decided that the floor is her domain and whoever is sitting or lying on it is at her will. Apart from climbing all over us she has taken to jumping on our shoulders when we sit down, generally from the back so quite often I'll be sitting on the floor giving her a piggy back ride!!!! The cutest thing about this is that she tries to reach around to my face to give me a big, wet, sloppy kiss!!! Always appreciated!! She has totally integrated herself into the family and I can't imagine life without her.
