Hi everyone, my name is Atom and I've been watching my best friend spend a lot of time on steemit these past few weeks and I wanted to get started myself. He just left the house and drove away so I invited a few neighbors over to sign up and for our first steemit meetup. This is my neighbor Luis and he is really good online. http://i.giphy.com/jkSvCVEXWlOla.gif This is Ginger and she is good with graphics and designed my intro sign. http://i.giphy.com/ChpOyeacGmpQk.gif And Alley the cat wanted in on the action and boy can he type: http://i.giphy.com/JIX9t2j0ZTN9S.gif Our first plan of action was to introduce myself and see if there are any dog lovers out there. Just maybe I can transfer any proceeds to my best friend so he can buy me more toys and treats. :) I LOVE TREATS!

A little about myself

I'm a pure white [Miniature Schnauzer](http://dogtime.com/dog-breeds/miniature-schnauzer). I know [most Schnauzers are gray](https://www.google.com/search?q=schnauzer&source=lnms&tbm=isch) but they bred all the gray out and here I am :) The main problem with being all white is that it shows all the dirt. I can't get away with anything! Just this morning I went out to the vegetable garden to get me a cucumber (Oh I love vegetables) and when I came back my best friend knew that I was in the garden. Dang, I was found out again! I wish I was gray like the other Schnauzers :/ Well I was born just last year on August 8th, 2015 in a house that breeds dogs like me for money. I guess my breed does well because we're so cute. ;) lol See. This is me last October in my new home. http://mikepotterhere.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/atompup1.jpg Below is a picture of me, my sister and 2 brothers when we were little having lunch from mom. You can't really see me very well. I have a blue collar on and my mom has her leg on me. My sister Pink is squishing me and my little brother. My name back then was Blue. I guess because of the blue collar. http://mikepotterhere.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/atomsmom.jpg

After our meetup

We had a great time at our meetup and after we were done we had dinner. Some strays also joined in. http://i.giphy.com/dsfWYK7zrNRYs.gif There is so much I want to tell you about myself and my life as a dog. I hope you enjoyed my introduction and follow me.
