Pearl is a bird dog as well as a family dog. When I walked by the yard she was dividing her time between watching over her wee human siblings and sticking close to Dad.....I suspect she strongly prefers the latter, since she is a working (hunting) dog and therefore spends lots of time with him out in the fields. Her ivory fur and soft liver spots stood out to me.....not sure I've ever seen a dog with quite this color palette. Trust me, she is SO PRETTY. Her Dad told me that she likes bacon and beer, like him!
