We got her!

We were on the road at 8 a.m., headed to Crockett to pick up Whitney Pearl.   Erin was a little excited.


Whitney's littermates had already gone to their new homes, so she was pretty excited to have someone to play with.





She made herself right at home and even let Ralph get pretty close to her before chasing him.  Lucky for Ralph, Whitney is not as fast as he is and she's pretty clumsy, so he gets away with no problem.



She was not happy that she had to be on a leash to be introduced to Ralph.
Ralph finally got close enough to sniff her.



















The good news: she goes to the door and sits when she needs to go out.  She also sits on command!!

The bad news:  those teeth are like razors.  I think we'll be trying to teach her that body parts are not meant to be chewed for a while!

Somehow, some way we wore her out well enough that she didn't cry at all the first night.  Tried to duplicate that today, but we'll see!

T minus 24 hours....

In 24 hours we will have our new puppy, Whitney Pearl, home with us.  I'm not really sure what to think. There's plenty of excitement to go around, that's for sure!  I'm a bit nervous, actually.  I want Whitney and  Ralph to get along famously, but I know that will take time.  Ralph isn't sure what to think either!!  :)


Everything on this planet is a toy to this kitty, so I'm sure Whitney will be no different (eventually).

Here are the most recent photos we received from the kennel where Whitney is:


WHAT A DOLLFACE!  

A grand adventure awaits!  Stay tuned...
