What are his/her unique personality characteristics?

Jenna is an extremely smart dog with a princess attitude. Half the time she knows what I’m thinking before I even know what I’m thinking. She lives inside full-time with us, because she’s getting ready to retire after this year. And she absolutely loves to cuddle. You can’t go to bed without her coming with you. She’s just a very calm, but demanding dog. She likes to paw you across the face if you’re not petting her. But she’s just, she’s just an awesome, super sweet dog. And, and like I said, highly intelligent sometimes to the point that it drives me nuts.

What is that litter’s “theme” name?…and other siblings’ names from that litter?

So I actually bought Jenna, so I wasn’t the one that named her but it was just a J litter. So there was Jenna, Jack, Jerry, Jimmy, Johnny, Jackie. So just all J names.

What is the bloodline?

So her dad is Solomon, which is a pretty popular dog that got bred too in Alaska and then her mom is Regret, which was one of Ken Anderson’s dogs that came out of Cook lines. So more sprintier lines.
