Puppy!


Well last night we made a new addition to our family. She is wonderful and we love her. She is our new dog, that at the moment doesn't have a name. She is Springer Spaniel, Blue Heeler, and Boarder Collie all mixed into one. There might be a few others in there, but we're not sure. The picture is a bit dark, but you can see a bit what she looks like. She is a sweet little dog, but she is very timid. She hasn't had a lot of socializing so she isn't overly confident, but she seems to be improving already. Right now we kind of like the name Indigo and calling her Indy for short. Someone suggested this on a mailing list I am on, and I really like it. We are going to let everyone give us suggestions till later today and then make a choice. A dog needs a name right? She is such a gentle little girl. I gave her a bath last night and she laid down in the tub for most of it. There was no trying to jump out or shaking at all, she was very good. We let her sleep in a crate last night and she didn't make a mess at all in there. She did whine at 4am, and I let her out to see if she needed to do any "puppy business". I'm not sure if she did, but there is still no mess at 7am this morning. Well I should run and get a few things done before Brighton wakes up!

  • Congrats! Wow, your family keeps getting bigger and bigger. Must be a lot of fun. Mike and I are in self-imposed no-more-pets exile. :-)

  • So are me and Todd... we only have one cat right now, since the other ones went to new homes because they were a bit to crazy when the were all together. One cat and one dog, that's all! Well... maybe a fish :)

  • The dog is adorable .... I am glad you did not listen to me and got her anyway. I love her (and you too).
