Countdown to Shorty: 6 Days

Less than a week!

Rosy looks a bit like she's criticizing me. "Seriously? Ser-y-auss-ly?"

20 Days to Go

Yep, only twenty days until my first agility dog walks into my house. I've been waiting for her since late January, and now, it's finally May. I can't wait to welcome the sweet little pup into my home and cuddle her. Rosy is generally friendly, but she loves to be the center of attention. Hopefully she'll find playfulness in a ball of energy.
Shorty is still a little angel, like when we met her, according to the breeder, and I hope she'll stay that way. Feast your eyes on her newborn puppy picture!

Back when her name was Sadie. And Tootsie. And Lily. And Taffy. And Pepper. And in those day, we didn't know which pup was ours. And we don't now! In fact, the only identifiable one is the particolor. Oh well! We have pictures of the pup now!

Adorable Shortcake Pictures

Since Rosy is turning into an older dog, we decided to get a second canine to cheer her up and keep her exercising. As well as this, we have goals for this puppy (Shortcake), as we want to teach it numerous tricks. If she turns out to take her mother's weight, making her a standard cockapoo, we may even teach her basic agility.
Anyway, the breeder sent us some beautiful pictures of the baby girl.

We fought over her name for two months, until we all agreed on four names: Pepper, Sadie, Tootsie, and (of course) Shortcake. Shortcake eventually won out.
This cutie is also an F1 cockapoo, and she will probably have Rosy's coat, even. But she really is a cutie pie and tiny little girl. She's a little older than three weeks and we should have her by late May.
Our hope is that she and Rosy will get along nicely and that she will be just as intelligent and willing to please. We also hope she won't react negatively to the dwarf hamsters, such as pestering them.
