"It's Kathryn and Johnthony! Wanted to touch base as yesterday was our one year adoption day anniversary :) Can't believe it's already been a year since we flew out to pick him up from you.
Johnthony (Luna x Roy 12/21/21 litter) is thriving and doing so well. He takes after his mom Luna and is a bit on the smaller side, weighing in at around 12 lbs. He is in perfect health and our local vets office LOVE him. He's one of their favorites when he comes in for check ups :) In the past year, my husband and I welcomed our first child, a son named Webb, and Johnny could not be a better family dog. He's very gentle and so far doesn't mind all of the crying and late night wake ups. We are so excited to watch them grow up together!
He's got a big cairn personality and loves greeting and playing with other dogs. He's made some dog pals in the neighborhood who he enjoys playing with and even though they are all much larger than he is, he loves wrestling and chasing them around. Johnny also loves being outdoors--we take him out on our boat regularly to go fishing, he loves swimming in shallow water and will sit in the backyard in the sun for hours. He absolutely hates squirrels and rabbits and makes it his mission to keep them out of our yard by chasing them down and barking at them.
We are trying to keep him true to his cairn roots so have been taking him to a former cairn show handler to have him handstripped. He has a beautiful brindle coat, with lots of red/orange peaking through and it continues to surprise us color-wise as he grows.
Overall, we just love Johnthony so much and are so thankful to Northwest Cairns for adding him to our family. He has been such a wonderful addition and we are grateful that he came from a healthy and happy home, which helped set the foundation for the spunky, good boy we have today!"
