Deweena is very active, she likes to run around the house and play with Tim and the girls.  She likes to play with toys--especially tug-of-war.  Deweena does not want to be held as much as the other dogs--she entertains herself.  She will join the others when I am sitting down but she does not stay the whole time.  She is content to sleep in a bed on the floor--with a blanket in the bed.   She is very affectionate, just not clingy.  She does bark but not for long--that may be because the other dogs to not join in the barking and do not encourage her to keep barking. All in all, Deweena is not shy; she is very sweet, very happy, and very enjoyable as a pet.
