Valentine Update

Well...we took our little "man" to the Vet on Friday. He needed a new-puppy checkup. So, we asked the burning questions: WHAT is he? and... How big will he get?


We got some interesting answers. The Vet had her educated guess, then she took him around to the rest of the crew to poll for answers. The most common answer: oh, no, not the "C" word....here it comes... Chihuaha mixed with terrier (Jack Russell???) and perhaps some beagle. No Schipperke? NO. None that she could see. Hmmmm.... He could weigh anything from a whopping 10 pounds, up to a mighty 20 or 30. This was NOT the answer I was hoping for. A little Labrador mixed in would have given me much to smile about...but not what I was really anticipating. What can I say? He's a pound-puppy!


Sigh. He's still a keeper, and gets cuter by the day. He and Chloe are now playing regularly (and loudly..she's a talker) and we have discovered what a little conniver he is. The antics keep us all smiling.


Now...if he would just get that potty-training down!

He is a cute little guy, even if he is a little barker. Hey and maybe he will gain a few more pound then everyone thinks. :)
