Almost Self-Reliant
We took a small towel with us went we went to pick her up and used it to get the scent of her mom, dad and litter mates...a little security blanket, if you will. And it just so happens that the guy we bought her from is a friend of my sisters...small world, huh?
She's a good rider...she just sat in my lap and watched the world go by as we made several stops before getting her home. Had to get puppy chow, toys and a collar for her and then Subway for us. She curled up in my lap and slept through the short trip home.
She met Smoke, first thing and I was impressed that the cat didn't run and hide. Smoke is bigger than "my Precious", but won't be for long, I suspect, as the little girl has some paws on her!
Got her fed once we got settled in as the guy we got her from was nice enough not to feed her so that she wouldn't get sick on the short ride home. We were totally appreciative of that one!
We have a large dog crate but it won't fit under the table, so for now she's sleeping in a large box in the middle of the floor for the nights. She will be jumping out of it in no time, I'm sure, as she tried several times already but I keep telling her NO in a firm voice and telling her it's time for bed. So far, so good!
She probably thinks that NO, Good Girl is her name!
She'll be 8 weeks old on Saturday but she's getting a bath tomorrow with Dawn dish detergent as she was raised up outside and I noticed a flea or two on her. Dusted her with food grade DE this evening just to help do some damage control.
Well, I'm gonna get off of here and give her another potty break before I call it a day!
