"It was my twin! Spanokopita?"
No, I didn't find my twin in my head. However, yesterday we did find someone else's twin where we least expected it!
When we arrived at the stable on Saturday, we didn't notice the little dog jumping around at first. Then as we neared the ring, the dog ran towards us. We looked at the pup and were shocked as we thought perhaps we had been transported to Edgewater, Maryland!
Yes, Sandy "L.E." Talbott has an Icelandic twin named Nina! Both Caitlin and Kelsey thought she was Sandy's long lost relation. Nina's tail is a little bit longer and Sandy's fur is a little darker. If not for those small differences, Pete would have grabbed Nina and performed Sandy air-guitar without further ado.
Nina even likes to be picked up and held like Sandy and displays her belly eagerly. She seemed equally as fast, too. The only test we could not perform was 'paw'. Hopefully, next week we will also get a picture to post!

That's so funny, finding another meirkat look-alike so like Sandy. What bundles of energy!

From a veterinarian's perspective, there are many international variations on Sandy's breed, the American Brown Dog. We have seen examples of Belizean and Guatamalan Brown Dogs, and it is not surprising that the Icelandic Brown Dog exists, also. Except that dogs of any kind seem to be so rare in Iceland!
