I told you it was long.. hehe.. then we have nameless.. still figuring out a name.. but have some good options now..
as some may know I always wanted a Borzoi (obviously after huskies n poms).. but my only options were to import one as there were no breeders here back then (now there are like 2).. sooo.. a couple years back on one of the many trips my hubby did it came across a trip to Russia and I told him "bring me a Borzoi".. lol.. well the trip was only talked, never made.. but he did knew someone who could sent me one.. and listed me, without me knowing, on a waiting list for one.. .. two weeks ago I got an email saying "where do we send the dog to?".. and I was like what??.. what dog?.. and they told me everything.. the hubs told them that whenever the dog was available they should contact me to know where to send it as we were in between moves and he rarely checked his email so they better contact me..

I thought it was odd.. until they sent me the shipping slip and I confirmed with the airline and yes, the dog was on it's way to me!!

I picked her up on Feb 21st, 2012


they are both almost same age (rottie is like a week older).. what one lacks in height has in width


it was a bit shocking.. but sweet..


I must say.. I'm very happy.. but this lil punk is a chewer.. haha.. yeah I know puppies chew everything.. but Hoover hadn't made any "disasters".. and since "she" arrived.. well.. he has teared up two boxes of clothes.. that had been out for months untouched.. totally ripped apart 3 pairs of shoes.. took heels and straps off..

she is a rather calm dog.. but I think she has chewing attacks.. lol.. and the mandatory 3 day serenades.. haha.. all day sleeping and all night howling.. haha.. Hoover didn't.. she just went to the doghouse and went to sleep..

they are such dorks.. I threw a couple tennis balls.. and this is what they did


they just sat there.. then gave me this look


oh but the ball hogger got them all and destoyed them ASAP


pretty pup


------------------------

it's not over yet.. hahahahahaha....
last week when I came from dogfood shopping.. as I was opening the car door.. I saw a little nose..
there was a little Chihuahua there.. my neighbor was out and I thought it was hers.. she said.. no, he just walked by here... then went to you.. he knew where to go.. lol..
he wasn't dirty nor skinny.. so he HAD to have got out not long ago.. but he had no collar, no tag..
my neighbor asked if i would get him inside.. yes I replied.. if I don't he might go further away or get run over.. the owner will show up soon..

yeah... no signs of him being missing.. or at least being looked for.. no posters, no newspaper ad, no nothing.. I posted that I had found a dog.. not giving much of his caracteristics because having no ID and the personality of "take me I love you whoever you are".. would make it difficult to find the REAL owners.. no one has claimed him.. (a few did contacted me.. but their dogs were diff colors than him)



I did found out.. he wasn't used to wearing a collar.. it was as when a puppy first gets his.. he kept trying to shake it off.. he didn't knew how to walk on leash.. that made me realize he indeed was an inside dog and probably never been out.. or at least not out leashed..

and he does NOT like other doggies... I was going to put him with Roger.. but that'd be a disaster.. so he's being kenneled and taken out often (even though he's on a big dog kennel and he's pretty small..hehe)

I'll give it a few more time to see if owners step forward.. if not, he'll be up for adoption.. I can't keep a dog who's anti-dog.. and it's not nice having him kenneled all the time.. he deserves a home all for himself.. he's very very sweet towards people n kids

-------------

and yes, that's the end... phew.. incredible how the pack grew.. haha.. yes.. I do have SUCKER carved on my forehead.. and I don't mind one bit..
