What a funny pose. I bet she is a ham.

I am not sure what a ham is. In South Africa the farmers used to wear shoes of leather called "Bush shoes" - Veldskoene. We abreviated it to Vellies and she reminded me of a song a well known singer used to sing about these shoes so whe called her Vellies. She is a little foxterrier and has a maltese poodle also female as friend which is called Amy. They love each other except when it comes to attention. Vellies would always sit on my husbands lap when he "braai" (barbeque) on a Sunday afternoon. And she would love the attention and would smile and talk and play around but is very behaved as soon as the food is served she would disappear. But believe me if she wants food and you are not fast enough she will grab you by the arm an pull you to her bowl.
