What are his/her unique personality characteristics?

So Susan’s personality is insane. She’s very cuddly, very attached to her person. So the second that you get in her spot, she’s latching onto you and just like, “Love me!”

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

Susan’s litter was named after Dr. Who characters, so the rest of her litter was Doctor, Sarah Jane, Martha, and Donna.

What is the bloodline?Her bloodline comes from a junior musher, actually. She was bred by Marianna Mallory, who ran the junior Iditarod a few years ago. She goes back to some old timey mushing stuff like Joe Runyan, Joe Garnie, and stuff like that.
