New buddy

Here's our new wee Rat Terrier pup - just picked her up today, about a week after her first shots. The epitome of cute. She'll probably be about twice the size of Spartacus when she's grown, since he was some sort of runty aberration. We still don't have a name for her yet, although wifey's leaning towards Sasha. We introduced her to Lena today at a neutral site (aka Grandma and Grandpa's pad) and she gave us a bit of a scare when she nipped the wee one. Seems fine now though, we'll be keeping a close eye whenever they interact of course. This pup is smaller than the rabbit Lena ate a couple of weeks ago...

Here she is in Grandpa's arms with her stylish new collar (that bugs the crap out of her right now).

What a magnificent little beast the new rat terrier is. She's a Peanut! LOVE the brown head. It's heart-stirring to me to see her and realize how quickly my little dog-on-springs is growing. She's almost 6 pounds now!!! Congrats and lots of love to your family. I know this pup will be bringing lots of warm regards straight from Spartacus to heal your hearts. :)
