New Dog!

Alright, here’s the scoop–my mother has had a retired greyhound racer for six years now. He’s nine years old, and he’s about the sweetest, shyest dog in the world. His name is Lockers–he’s a red brindle.

I have -always- wanted a little dog to be my own. Since even before we got Lockers, I wanted one who would be mine, and who would be a little dog.

Today my longtime dream came true. Meet Rosie, my new, special girl:

Supposidly she’s half English Cocker Spaniel, and half Labrador Retriever. She’s about a year and a half old, and she’s very shy and submissive. I hope, over the years, to bring her out a little more.

Right now she’ll just roll over on her back, both in submission, and for tummy rubs! She’s not usually fearfully submissive, it’s more just a, “Okay, consider me the underdog–no, really! I’m good with that!” and she wants tummy rubs and ear scratching.

More photos and details to follow! Right now I’m very tired, though, and I’m sleeping downstairs for the night. I think there’s about a 1% chance of our two, docile dogs getting into a tussle, but I’m more concerned about her waking up and needing to go out than anything else.
