Tia: The ultimate guard-dog

Tia is the ultimate guard-dog. Think about it, if a person could engineer a dog to act exactly like Tia, you could sell them and make billions.

To a stranger, Tia is menacing. To the owner, or those who know Tia, the dog would not harm a flea (well, maybe it would).

The dog is alert and knows it's surroundings. When outside, Tia methodically posts the edges of her owner's property and is always on the lookout for something going on. A person will not get to the porch of this house without Tia's permission.

Tia is low maintenance. An occassional bath, a summer haircut (as modeled in the photos above) and a bag of Ol' Roy now and then keeps this animal in great shape.

It is very content to live within four walls during the day, without causing any problems, and if someone comes to the door, her bark is enough to send a person packing.

So today, we recognize Tia, as the Ultimate Guard-dog.
