~ March '06 ~

March is often a breezy, blustery month, as Winter leaves us and Spring is ushered in. So who better to represent Northwest Swissydom than Beta, more officially known as "Howling Hills Breezed Beauty!"

And what a beauty she is. Still acting every bit a rambunctious pup at almost seven years, Beta keeps the Reynolds/Bennett household in stitches with her antics! One of her favorite pastimes is tossing her stuffed animals in the air as she bounds through the house. Another favorite form of entertainment is sparring with the family's cat "Sunkist." Sunkist weighs all of six pounds, but gets tons of respect from 99 pound Beta! As a matter of fact, it's not unusual to find Beta hiding (okay, attempting to hide) behind plants (she never fits, don't tell her) when Sunkist turns the tables and chases her! All's well that ends well, and after a rousing chase the two like nothing better than to cuddle up together on "their" couch. With all that exercise, no wonder she maintains her youthful looks! And she obviously watches her figure too – some of her favorite snacks are celery with peanut butter, grapes and apples!

Beta lives in Camano Island with Stacy, Mike and Skylar, who've had Swissies in their lives for the past 11 years. Plans & dreams for the future include Herding and even Therapy Work, and it sounds like Beta will be a shoe-in for the therapy job, as she's kept her family healthy with laughter (the best medicine) for years!
