As promised, here are a few pics of our new dog, Belle. They aren't the greatest, since I took them indoors on my cell phone, but you will still see her adorableness.
Belle is a rescue, about one year old, and some sort of pekinese/shih tzu/something mix. We're not sure. She's really cute, a bit smaller than Sophie, but about the same weight.
It doesn't seem like she was abused in her previous life (hooray!) but I think she was neglected. When she was rescued from a high-kill shelter in Kansas, the foster home said she didn't know how to use stairs, had never seen a TV, and was not housetrained. It seems like she was kept outdoors with the rest of her litter. She was matted and had fleas, but, thankfully, is in good health.
Sophie is being a bit territorial about her special sleeping places or the places she buries treats, but on the whole Sophie and Belle are getting along. They play, wear eachother out, and that is really what it is all about.
And now on to the pictures!
