photo5 photo6Meet Gizmo!  The ultimate canine storm chasing machine.  Gizmo is the new addition to the storm chasing team, and will be trained to point out the first signs of tornadoes - from a safe distance of course!  She is a Yorkshire Terrier, because we were looking for a dog of sufficiently small size so that she doesn't take up too much room in the Dominator!  This dog is going to be the most spoiled pet in the history of mankind. Check out Gizmo in action in the video below...we'll continue to provide video updates throughout her life on the blog and through video blog updates on our I-phone app!

Ha! Better strap an orange flag on her as she's so tiny, she'd disappear with any amount of accumulation!

Great idea, Dave! Puppies and snow. There's nothing better in life for producing large, happy smiles.

Congrats Guys!
Make sure you get her micro chipped! She's a cutie and you wouldn't want to loose her!

OOoo...I'm in wuv wiff Gizmo!

James, she's a Yorkshire Terrier. And terriers are tough. She'll figure out what she needs to do when the time comes to hunker down and get to chasing! 8) Great advise on the micro chip, disco.

Congrats, Dads!!!

Gizmo is so very cute! You may want to go on a few test runs throughout the winter to get Gizmo ready. There is a lot of action when that tornado touches down. You guys will be great fathers and that video was sooooooo cute!
