Settling In

It has been just over three weeks now since "the little one" arrived at our house. Fancy Pants a.k.a. Tuxedo has made himself quite at home and to say that we put out the welcoming blanket....well, that would be an understatement.

Oh, the joys of having a puppy in the house again! It has been such fun to get puppy licks, even though Tux's licking is so enthusiastic that it is hard to breathe! And the shenanigans that go on between Tux and his half-sister, Emma is non-stop.

Tux wants to do everything that Emma does and today was a big day. He made the leap up to the raised bed in the backyard where the squirrels and chipmunks hang out and collect their peanuts. No more safe territory for Emma, away from Tux's constant harassment. 

Emma & Tux on watch for the critters

I celebrated Tux's gymnastic achievement and his third weekend with us by creating some special labels for their crates: the pink label for the Princess Emma-lotta-Trouble and the slick black & white themed one for Mr. Fancy Pants, Tuxedo. 

Decorated Dog Dens

What a pair! It is amazing how quickly these dogs steal your heart. In less than a month, we are absolutely smitten with not one, but two lovable Lhasas.
