    hello!


     
    this is mika (my first dog) who just came home from the shelter yesterday. she's four or five years old, and she's an askal, the mixed-breed street dog native to the Philippines. still a little homesick, but she's quickly warming up. no accidents and barking (yet)! very calm, obedient and affectionate, although a little timid. doesn't she have the best ears?

    Very fine ears, indeed! Cute as a button!
     
    Welcome to you both!  Are you actually in the Phillipines or did she come to your shelter and you through a rescue effort? 
    Congratulations!

    Welcome to the board!  What a pretty girl you have!
    • Gold Top Dog
    thanks everyone!
     
    pofi_pasquale: yes, i'm in the philippines. her "breed" is actually looked down on because a lot of people here prefer purebreds like shitzus, labs and spitzes. but askals are more resistant to disease and are actually very smart!
