Gracie is doing very well . When we got her she was 6.3 pounds, but she has grown to 11 pounds now, and our vet has had us up her food intake. She is still a handful, but is just the cutest little dog in the world. Especially when she's sleeping...
She loves to run around in her yard; she likes to be chased and to bite your pant legs (we're trying to correct that...)
Once again, sleeping is still her favorite. 2 naps a day minimum. I wish I could have that every day.
She's taken to burrowing beneath the covers when we let her sleep in the bed. I don't know how instinctual that is, or if it's just warmer under there.
I swore that when I had a dog she would never be allowed on the couch. That lasted for roughly 4.3 seconds. I believe we let her sleep on the couch starting on the first night. Oh well. How can you refuse that face?
This picture must be a little old, as the stuffed chicken she's holding has since met it's untimely demise. She now has a bunny to wreak physical violence upon.
Um... Did I mention she's cute?
Really enjoying our new family member. She's getting really good at potty training, and knows sit, stay, come, down, and is doing much better at leash training. She has learned to bark, though, and is now barking at people and dogs she sees outside, as well as the TV (Darn you Animal Planet in HD!)
Anyway, she's the best. She brings sunshine and joy wherever she goes, gets stopped all the time on walks by admirers, and even makes random passers-by smile as they walk by her. One woman asked us to take a picture with her and gracie, and we've even had someone pull over their car so they could get out and meet her and pet her. Just amazing.
We hope you can meet her soon.
