Today we picked up a new pup, a long furred daschund. We've named her Rosie, and she's already worn out from playing with our Golden Retriever. My cats don't get along with it one almost beating the poop out of Rosie, but they'll get used to her.
Just so excited to have a new member in our family!

Maybe if I can borrow my dad's digital camera, I can take a picture.

Now comes the fun part, surviving the night with it yapping at the top of it's small lungs. Already driving my cats and little brother crazy.

The picture doesn't come up. Anyhow a quick description of what her parents look like:
They have long fur that is brown, with some red in it, and one has colorings like a Rottweiler. Ours is red, with some black on it. She has a long body like all other daschunds (weiner dogs)
She's pretty smart for a pup. I already taught her to go up and down the porch steps, and I'm working on teaching her to go through the dog door. Tomorrow I'm going to work on teaching her to go up and down the stairs to the second story of our house.
EDIT: Er scratch that last part I learned Daschunds have spinal problems so no going up and down stairs until she's big enough.

Cool, SPS, dogs are fun. When I got my new dog we gave in after five minutes of him barking and let him upstairs. ;D |

Congrats, SP. Now you've made me want a puppy. I hope you can get hold of your dad's digital camera and make some pictures of her. I would love to see them. Maybe you could even make some and post them as she grows too. Shan |

Rosie's intelligence amazes me, she already figured out how to get out of her boxed in area, and is learning to go piddle outside quickly. She's also taken after chasing my "entorage" or my cats around the house.

Awww. A house isn't a home without a pet. Pet stories are good to hear. |

Hmmm... intelligent dogs; sometimes it can become a pain when they use it at their advantage against you!  *remembers a dog who had learned how to open the fridge* ;D |

We met a couple last year who had two little Yorkies. Their owners would pen them in the kitchen when they didn't want them in the rest of the house. Well, one of them learned how to get the gate they used open and the other one would stand guard. If it saw one of the owners coming it would start to bark and the other one would stop what it was doing and act innocent. When the owners would leave, it would start trying to free them again and this would keep up until they got out. Shan |

maybe by now, they've figured a way to keep the owners penned in. ;D

Who knows what they might come up with next. One of my little dogs likes to tell on the other one. Shan |

Hahaha, Shan, it's very useful! As for me, I'm the lucky owner of a very... noodle dog. She tells herself on alone; when she's about to do/take something wrong, she comes to show it to us before. ;D |

Congrats! (
