Ruffles was lonely and needed a buddy. So the search began for another dog. He or she needed to be about her size and low shedding. I found this little white one on Craigslist. I'm guessing she's a Maltese / Yorkie mix. We met at a dog park and they got along very well so I brought her home. She came to us with the name "Flea". Do you like that name? Not us. So, we thought and thought and came up with "Pringles". Cute, right? That stuck until a couple days ago when Larry said we should call her Scruffy. Now I'm confused (and so is she) because he's calling her Scruffy and I'm calling her Pringles, Scruffy, Flea and White Dog, Abi's name for her.
Whatever her name ends up being, she is a pretty good dog. She begs; you know, hanging around the kitchen while I'm cooking (not Ruffles) and she's a licker (not Ruffles) which we're discouraging. She was also accustom to being on furniture. I think she's more or less got the idea that's not allowed here. That's pretty good for just one week. She is completely housebroken, not much of a barker, loves to sit on someones lap (just like Ruffles) and is just generally pretty good. Best of all, the two of them get along very well. They sleep in the same crate and keep each other company while we're gone. It's a pretty good arrangement.
