At My New Home
I flew all day saturday in a crate on the airplane. I flew all the way from New Orleans to Denver, then rode in a car for 5 more hours until I was finally home. We didn't get home untill around 11pm, and then after quick introductions went to bed. I slept with my new girl, Tempestt, and didn't have an accodent all night. I am already paper trained! We'll see if that lasts though.

Yesterday I had my 1st bath at my new home. I didn't exactoly care for it but I didn't make a fuss. I am such a calm girl, mom is really happy about that. After that bath mom decided she needed to use a hair dryer on me! What a terrible Idea! That thing, although it was quiet, was SCARY. I didn't cry but everytime mom relaxed her grip on me I shot off her lap like a lightning bolt! I'll get dry eventually anyway, but mom was worried I would catch a cold.

The kids hadn't realized how much sleep a pup like me needs. They all wanted to play with me all day, but mom has a rule. No one can mess with me if I'm sleeping. Such a good rule. Tian-Shi doesn't seem to know that rule though. She loves to play now and doesn't care if I'm sleeping or not. She is only 5 months old but is SO much bigger than I am. Chen Po will be one in December, but Tian-Shi is even bigger than he is. Mom says I'm going to get as big as Tian-Shi but Chen Po never will. He is something called a sleeve peke, whatever that is. Its hard to believe I'm going to ever be that big.

Here I am with my people brother, Dartagnan. From the look on his face I think he likes me. He is SO gently with me and loves to give me kisses. I have not a care or a fear in the world. The big poodles don't scare me in the least. They are all very nice to me and very carefull not to step on me. I hope they don't think I'm a foster dog because I'm here to stay. I came from such a wonderful breeder, Fran at BackForty Kennels, and am very differen't from the dogs mom usually takes care of. I have no fears to overcome. However, that also means I know no boundries and think I can fly. I jump off of everything I can find. It's so much fun to sail through the air although I need to work on my landings. Right now when I land I turn into a ball and roll. That scares mom SO much, she is afraid I'm going to break something. It's great to be a pup that has only known love. So very different than my new peke family. After all, what's to be scared of in life. I have a people and canine family that loves me, plenty of food, clean water, way to many toys, a soft bed, and toilet paper to shred and track all over the house. What could be better?
