Great things come in *multiple* small packages!

I have the beginnings of senility, or something... I must.

Our Family has grown, by TWO!



This Dixie, she's 8 weeks old, and a total snuggle bug/attention hog. Very much the alpha dog. Yet she's very quiet, and really, really loves sitting and playing with the kids. She likes to pick out her favorite pieces of puppy food, and hide them in her bed for later.
She rules the roost, with few exceptions.


This is Wee Man. He's 7 weeks old, and his name fits him in more ways than one. He's of the toy size, and also the teddy roosevelt type which means he has the stubbiest little legs, and a fat little body. He also peed on me, DJ, and the car door, AND floor on the way home. At home, he is actually the more reliable of the two in the housebreaking department.


He is HILARIOUS to watch eat, he's so chubby that when he leans forward ever so slightly to eat out of his food dish, his back legs come up off the ground. He kind of teeters on his front legs. He is the sweetest little guy, and so calm with the kids.

Puppy breath, and giggling girls are both running rampant thru my house today.... I thought spring break was supposed to be, oh... I don't know.... a break?!?
silly, silly me.... :)

maybe you should try raising the poor little puppies food dish up in the air , so he can eat in peace. We have our dogs dishes raised from the floor. He might drown trying to drink one day. ;) Thay are VERY cutie pie.
Housebreaking: Always take them out to relieve themselves , when they wake from a nap, after they eat, before going anywhere in the car and before bedtime. The real key is to stand still while they are outside and let them wander around to do their business. If you are always walking or moving they think they HAVE to be with you.
