SugarPlum

SugarPlum is one of the Nutcracker Suite pups and is a solid whitish/biscuit color like her Komondor dad, but has a smooth coat like her mom Sasha, an Anatolian Shepherd. In their first home, this family lived with chickens, ducks, geese, a couple of goats, dogs, barn cats, and a few assorted other animals so they have had a great diversity of exposure. Since coming to Bluebonnet, SugarPlum has lived part-time in the pasture with our Nigerian Dwarf goats, and part-time in the house.

SugarPlum weighed 74 lbs at her last vet visit, and we think she should stay about that weight, maybe gaining a couple of pounds by the time she's 3 years old. Her mom is currently about 80 lbs and dad is over 100 lbs.

SugarPlum is playful with other dogs, but actually seems to prefer the company of an adult dog (Tyana) who looks very much like her. Maybe there's truth to the old saying "Birds of a feather flock together." SugarPlum settles nicely when she has the opportunity to get attention/petting from a human and she is quick to sit for a treat. We think SugarPlum would be great as a family pet or maybe on a small homestead where she could be trusted around the livestock (with proper introductions and supervision) but would be primarily a pet and not a true LGD.
