Name: Summer Delight (mostly known as Delight)

Age: Born Winter 1929

Gender: Female

Breed: 1/2 Shetland Sheepdog, 1/2 Border Collie

Mate: Rabbit

Pups: Morning Glory, Hawthorne, Buckthorn, Freesia, Marigold

Personality: Sweet and shy, she loves to play and care for others. Her job is her life and she works very hard at making her owners proud of her. She hates being the center of attention but enjoys loving attention. She is very protective over Rabbit and her mood can easily change to an angry fighter if he is bullied. She is often ashamed of this side of herself.

History: She works on the same farm as Fly's mother. She is one of the five dogs that they own. Out of her and her siblings, she was the only one to be kept, and she made friends with Fly-Boy and his siblings before all of them were sold. She was trained from an early age to herd sheep and she looked up to Fly's mother (we'll call her Flick) greatly. She saw Flick as a second mother to her, especially as her own mother was old and died when Delight was only a year old. She was heartbroken for a while after this and did badly at her training. When Rabbit was brought to the farm, having belonged to the farmers nephew until he died, she saw that he was a lot worse off than her. They bonded over their losses (Delight losing her mother and Rabbit his owner and two friends) and became close. She trained well and became an excellent sheepdog, full of boundless energy and motivation. Rabbit is dear to her and she becomes his mate later on. While they are close and she is extremely overprotective of him (and later her children as well), she still treats her job with a lot of care and precision as well.

Other: Nothing to say really. Other than I've always wanted a collie/sheepdog type character and I think she's probably my prettiest character xD Oh and she may also sometimes where a red bandana/scarf.

Relation to Balto: Her daughter becomes 'special friends' with Pester, who is Chester's daughter, who is Dusty and Ralph's son.
