Roxy Update




Not sure if the video from the last post was/is working, but Roxy loves using her ramp and doggy door! Since we trained her to use it there have been NO accidents in the house. We leave a little patch of grass on the patio and she lets herself in and out. Sometimes, she'll go out and sit on the ramp just to oversee the apartment complex.

Today we went to the dog park for the very first time. Roxy seemed nervous at first, but she warmed up to some of the other small dogs. I had a great time and can't wait to go back with her - I just wish it was closer to our apartment.

Meet __________________ !



Meet our newest addition! We got her from a local shelter after checking her out a few days ago. Today, we had a formal meeting and interview and then we got to take her home! The shelter got her only a few days ago (from another crowded shelter) and they gave her the name Chatita. She hasn't learned that name (thank God - we hate it) because it was only a few days ago.

But, now we can't make a decision on a new name that fits her. I know, shocking, neither of us can make a decision. So, some info about her: She has the cutest little white paws and big ears. The shelter said she was part Chihuahua and part Corgi. Not sure how accurate the Corgi is, but I can see the Chihuahua in her. She is a little over ten pounds and much smaller than she looks in the pictures. Vote on a name and if you don't like any of the choices than leave a suggestion :)

Hope everyone had a wonderful New Year's Eve! Miss you all!
