    We got another dog?!

    Sort of.

    A month or two ago my sister got a Basset Hound puppy. She lives in an apartment about 10 minutes from us so she brought Babs over to visit 2-3 times a week.

    Unfortunately, there have been a few...incidents involving Babs and my sister's roommate, so for her safety Babs is staying with us for the time being, not sure how long that'll be.

    Anyways...meet BABS! [Sadie is slowly warming up to her...she was terrified of Babs the first few times they met though haha]

    Sadie and Babs [Sadie's reeeally pleased haha]





    in on the joke and i cant stop laughing

    A few more...

    It was hard to take pictures 'cause Babs has to be on a leash [no fence] and she kept doing this:



    When she was real little, the first time she came over:

    Awwww. Babs is precious! What a cute long eared little girl! I do hope she doesnt have to go back to the apt unless everything is ok. I'm not sure what you meant but you said there were "incidents involving her safety". Poor little pup should not be in a bad situation. I say get rid of the roommate, jmo. Anyway she is such a pretty cute pup and she deserves a good safe loving home and atmosphere. I bet Babs likes it at your house and I suppose your Sadie and cat will get used to her. Thanks for showing her... she's adorable... Kay in NC

    I'll take her!!! I have always wanted a Basset.

    I agree with previous poster. Get rid of the room-mate and keep the dog. If it is a significant other, definitely get rid of them. No one should abuse a dog if that is what we are talking about here I wouldn't want to live with them.

    I took the liberty of "reading between the lines" too, and I detect what the previous posters did too. If it's not safe for Babs to be around the roommate, then please keep her away before something terrible happens. It may not be practical or possible to get rid of the roommate, but if there is no other option, I'd sure find another home (temporary or permanent) for Babs. I personally could NEVER live with an individual, if I even thought for one minute, that this person was harming or threatening a pet.

    Please keep Babs safe - she's such a cutie.

    *slam* *brush brush brush* Sorry, that was me falling off my chair with cuteness and getting up again!

    Hello, cutie Babs! You were an adorable little one and now you are ... STILL adorable! I like the fifth photo in the first post I enjoyed meeting you today!

    It might not be abuse, it might be Babs just being a puppy is upsetting the roommate, some people are less than understanding about shoes being chewed, carpet being soiled while training is going on, etc., so I think they are doing the right thing by keeping Babs while her sister sorts out the situation. In any case, she's in a safe place now, and thankfully Sadie's getting used to her!

    I don't really want to get into it all because a) it's the internet, and b) I don't know the whole story, but my sister and the roommate in question don't agree with methods of...discipline, I guess? I dunno.


    But yeah. I just got back from taking Babs on her first ever walk [to the end of my street and back, haha] and she's SO calm, it's crazy! At this age, Sadie was literally choking herself from pulling so hard and Babs is just trucking along like a little pro. She's awesome.

    I'm glad that she's in a safe home and hopefully whatever happened in the past won't ever happen again. She's so adorable that sure wouldn't want to let her go. She sounds like a very good little girl too.

    Aw, a PUPPY!!! You got PUPPY BREATH!!! You are very lucky! And so is Babs, to have folks looking out for her!

    Now this first visit photo, of your kitty looking down on the pup, that is just begging for a caption! What a fun shot, love that!

    Sadie, I know it is a lot of PUPPY ENERGY, but she won't hurt you, and you get to play at being the BIG SISTER!

    OMG, few things are cuter than a basset puppy! And Babs is a GREAT name for a basset! She's adorable!
