Panther is a little pocket rocket - she is a tiny little thing but has more than enough spirit and drive! She is very cautious of new people at first, but once you've earned her trust, she begs for many many pets and gives the best hugs with her tiny little body. Panther leans into me with her whole being and prefers to be near at all times, even during free play. She adores all the other dogs in the yard and wants nothing more than to play and be best friends with them, but she has a big bark when she spots interloping deer beyond the fence. Panther has the most beautiful, effortless stride of any of my dogs, and looks almost like she is floating when she trots and lopes down the trail.

Panther was always a house dog at heart, and she was way more enthusiastic about that than long distance running, and unfortunately she didn't get along with one of my other house dogs. So in 2024 Panther retired to a friend's couch and has been living her best life ever since.
