Another Pupdate

We've had Rosie for over 3 weeks now, but it feels like she's been with us for much longer! This morning I took her to the vet and she weighed in at 15 pounds! That's 2 pounds more than when we got her. Just this week we had to adjust her harness to fit her, and her ribs are no longer visible (it must be the peanut butter in her Kong). Dr. Deegan says that this is a good weight for her. She thinks she's fully grown now, so now we'll just keep an eye on her weight and maintain it. Her ears are ear mite free - finally! The staff at the animal hospital always remember Rosie if for no other reason than her "ear mite party" she had going on the first time she was brought in by Annapolis Dog Rescue. She had the most they'd ever seen before. Poor little girl - good thing she's better now!

Today - right after the vet.

Right now she's sacked out on the couch. She always sleeps in the morning after breakfast, so her nap was delayed since we went to the vet at 8:00. It just started to snow, so we'll go out and experience that in a little bit once she's a little more awake.

She's our Christmas present to each other!

Dogs need to stay warm, too.

I guess the couch wasn't comfortable enough!


It just started to snow - we'll go out in a little bit to experience that and see how she likes it!
