Pippi: Pet of the Day

Blue sky . . . check. Boat . . . check. Super cute Scottie . . . check. This puppy's Pippi, a Scottish Terrier that loves going camping and getting super dirty. She looks pretty clean here, but I'm thinking this shot was snapped pretty early on the adventure. She's got some Scottie BFFs, Stella and Morty, that she likes to play with . . . and she even shares North's love for peanut butter. Yum! In addition to her other pals, akrsouth recently added another lil pooch to the family – Willa's not even a year old yet but she's already fitting right in with Pippi's chasing and frolicking merriment!
