4:30 pm

It's 4:30.  Do you know where your doberman has been?
Ehem.
(crackle crackle)
We have a 754 on some illegal pond swimming activity.  Perpetrator is sopping wet, smelling like stagnant river and will be leaving a trail of duck weed.  Beware of clean jeans, recently mopped floors and white sheepskin throws.  Over and out.

Faster than speeding bullets,
Twice the mud,
Thrice the slobber.
Saving the world one woof at a time.

OH!
And I almost forgot!  Outtakes from tonight's romp...

The GIRLIE has Arrived!

Friends,
I'd like you to meet our newest pack member:
Freyja

(it's pronounced fray-YA)
The name comes from an old Norse goddess of life and war, love and beauty - and here's the best part - WHO DRIVES A CHARIOT ACROSS THE LAND PULLED BY TWO CATS!


I think Thai and Sing are unamused by this little fact.  They have both made great show of smacking her on the behind and bopping her on the head.

So,
about Miss Freyja.
When we arrived to pick her out, she surprised us by making it no contest at all.  From the photos, she is girlie number one; BC and I, based on photos alone, were leaning heavily towards either number 2 or 4 (their markings and bright eyes swooned us).  But from the moment we stepped into the puppy-fray, Freyja won our hearts and minds with personality, interaction, and not least of all, GUMPTION.  She is smart as a whip and curious as a cat.  Even in the few mini puppy training sessions we've already begun, she has wowed us in no small way.
All that to say, we have a lot of puppy on our hands!

Sancho thinks he has died and gone to heaven; his very own puppy to nom.  But truly I've fallen even more in love with him these last 48 hours, watching him play so gently with her, luring her to play tug, cleaning her face, checking in on her in her crate, and generally obsessing over his new bestie.
He will always be my Pup.

They will be thick as shoe-thieves, no doubt.

Here's to the thunderdome that now exists in our kitchen!
And here's to getting nothing done other than puppy play!
