I guess that's what she meant. I've always heard it used as a synonym for "rug rat", but then I've never owned a yippy little dog. I find them as annoying as Alexa herself. Even when you try to be nice and engage them in a friendly game of tug-of-war, they just reflexively snap at you for daring to come into their territory.

Of course, she could have been trying to call me a "junior cracker", aka "script kiddie". Perhaps confused over the term "cracker", thinking it an affectionate term for a southerner.
