Kippa and Kitty

The Icelandic Sheepdog puppies are now four months old; Kitty and Kippa are back together again at a show this weekend, in Lima, Ohio, I think. (Lima as in lima beans, not as in Lima, Peru. What a strange language - English.) Click on photos to enlarge them.

Black & tan with a little white Kippa was slightly bigger than chocolate & tan with a white collar Kitty as a puppy; it looks like, at least in these photos, they are about the same height now.

Kitty has a shorter coat like her mother Totty. I thought Kippa was going to have longer fur but, for now at least, their fur length looks similar - maybe it's their summer weight coat. Fur length for Icelandic Sheepdogs in the winter is usually longer in northerly climes.

It looks like they are getting along OK together. I want a truck like that - or at least I want to ride in a truck like that and pretend it's mine. I wonder if I could carry it off? Please say yes to ~ I could carry it off. Ha! I love the pink umbrella.
