*Potential News* update :) having some issues

[chocolatepuppy]

I still miss Sassy alot, there are times when I feel nothing has changed and she's still here. I still find little traces of her around here, and every time I do it breaks my heart that she died so young, I hope she isn't mad. He won't replace her, no one will, she was her own kind of dog, very different from any dog I've ever met. Miss and love you my little character, thanks for sending us our new angel.

Sassy won't be mad Alyssa. She'll be happy to see you happy again. There's plenty of room in your heart to still love her and to love your new dog.
I'm so happy for you! Can't wait to see more pics of Mikey!

I am very happy for you too. Being able to help another dog in need is a very noble thing to do. We all know Sassy isn't being replaced. You are just giving another dog a different part of your heart.

Hi guys, sorry I couldn't update straight away! We picked up Mikey, he's about 30 lbs, such a cute little man He came with most of the stuff we need, we just need new tags and a tie out for the yard, and a posture dish. He hasn't been the best dog, but not that bad. It's only his first day and he must be a little confused. He is adjusting well. He peed on the carpet 3 times -.-, the first being when he came RIGHT into the house. He is potty trained though. He's such a sweetie though, a true character at best. I can't desribe all of this in one post I just hope he gets used to us. He also stole my moms slippers and my shoes, which we all thought was funny. He's being crated for now at night and when we aren't home and he isn't allowed upstairs yet. I took 33 pics, here's 8 of them:

He's a bit abnormal, his favorite spot on the couch is the back of the couch, not the actual cushion

Pleased to meet you

Welcome, Mikey!
Looks like he made himself right at home in no time! He sure is a handsome pup.


Skylar's favorite spot to sleep is on the back of the couch, too. Though, at over 60 pounds we try to discourage it.

Alyssa!!! He is so adorable! He looks like he is feeling right at home with you.
I just love his ears and his wrinkly face. It must feel so good to have a pup in the house again. And I'm sure Sassy is very happy for you. Another dog cannot replace her, but it can help heal your heart a little.

Thank you guys so much for the comments on Mikey. I cannot get over how adorable he is. NO accidents in the house today. Yes, I just knocked on wood. He did have a bit of a humping issue a little while ago, after saying no and not listening I decided to use the squirt bottle method. Worked like a charm. He follows ME everywhere, he's a velcro dog. I love him so much. I'm not gonna say he's my heart doggie yet, I'd like a sign but he is certainly "clicked" with him. He happens to be from a breeder, which of course you all know I discourage with a passion, but it was not me who bought him. Apparently, he might have ended up in a shelter. To me I adopted him. He's such a sweetie. He just put his head on my knee and looked me in the eyes..Awww

ETA: I forgot to mention. He was purchased(i have his papers) on December 26th, Sassy's birthday. I think that's a good sign right there!
