Then I played Exalt when there was no E…Adapt was the _only_ word that one could be, which I didn’t see, but I would have if I realized that. Exalt did give me the L for the #3 word though, but I’d have figured an L may be in there anyways.

I didn’t see Drama then, but thankfully that was all there was. And that long list got whittled down to just Raver and Gazer…two uncommon words, but I chose well. Phew!

Yeah, like Chili said…another dumb uncommon word they like to use - it’s shown up before. So sorry about the fail…bummer!

I am familiar with cairns (as in the stone markers or memorials), so that one didn’t trip me up thinking it was a proper noun, _thankfully_. I am also familiar with Cairn Terriers (they’re really cute!), but I’m not sure what they were named after, so I looked it up just now. They are actually named after the pile of stones - lol. Originally named “short-hair Skye Terrier” but that was rejected, so they were renamed.

Interesting, I didn’t know that. They don’t look anything like Skye terriers to me.  
Looked it up, they were judged under the “Skye Terrier class” along with Scotties and West Highland Whites( who apparently back then were just white Cairns)  
I love terriers but have never owned one and don’t know a whole lot about their individual histories. I’ve mostly stuck to the working and herding breeds.

Yeah, the Skye and Cairn don’t really look alike to me either…I’d say the Cairn looks more like the Norwich and Norfolk terriers. There’s some really great little terrier breeds that would be fun to own, but like you, I’ve always only had the herding mixes. I always thought when I got older I _might_ go smaller with a terrier maybe, but here I am with my 50-55 lb. GSD/BC mix. 😆

I saved the trap word for last hoping I’d get some help from the other words, and it _did_ help a little…still needed a sleuth word though to sort out Blade, Blame, Blaze, Flake, Flame - DUMBO to the rescue. 😆

We’ve had a few toy dogs over the years- Pug, Chihuahua and Pomeranians, also a Mountain Feist, which is similar to a Rat Terrier, along with our big dogs, GSD, Doberman and Malinois.  
I’m a HUGE dog lover 😆  
My getting older breed is Corgis , big dog personality in a little dog body 🥰
