About Dosie & Zipper

Hi! I'm Zipper. Along with Dosie we are North Carolina's First Dogs. We've been a part of Bev and Bob's family for as long as I can remember. Back in 2005 Dosie had seven puppies - including me!

We are Tibetan terriers that love to run and love to sleep - we're happy either way. We also are great guard dogs, at least until people realize we're a lot of bark but not much bite. It's important to keep the family safe!

We are just getting used to the spotlight that comes with being part of the First Family. Read our first profile article here. We're always looking for new canine friends. Send us your pet pictures and a quick note and I'll post some of them right here.
