Daisy Duke's Debut

Here she is! The best puppy ever. We love her to death and I'm convinced that she is the smartest, prettiest, most lovable of them all ( I know, I know, all puppy parents think that).

Last week we tentatively started thinking about getting a puppy (as usual) and we started searching the web. We went to Puppy Lifeline out on Broomfield and looked at some older puppies but I couldn't pull the trigger. On Saturday while I was at work Mike showed up with Daisy. I know, I know, you say how could he go get a puppy and bring it home. I was a bit shocked but totally understood why once I got to know Daisy. I think he just fell in love with her and couldn't leave her. Well that and he knew I really wanted a dog and just couldn't actual pull the trigger

She is a Shepherd/Something mix (don't think Eddie didn't have something to do with this). They told us she is 8 weeks old but I think she is a bit older. She is very mild mannered, timid, and shy but we hope to break her of that. She crates very well, walks on the leash amazingly well (she has designated me the pack leader so she just follows) and sleeps very well. We have lots of time to devote to her now so she is very spoilt (she only has 3 more weeks before her fancy free days are over and the discipline starts to set in). She even had her first bath today. She is afraid of many things (such has wood floors) but we have introduced her to the vacuum cleaner and the power drill so we are making progress.

She hasn't yet hit her crazy puppy stage yet. She sleeps a lot and mildly curious with bouts of energy here and there. Her tail is short which is odd so we think she may have terrier/rottweiler in her.

Wish us luck :-)
