A New Furry Boy ...but not what you think

Sadie, our well known "flopper", who will sit or lie anywhere that catches her fancy, has decided to sit on top of the new dog cage holding the new furry boy.  She has taken a sniff or two of the new pup without any real interest and is now ignoring him. She can easily ignore his little yips, being deaf, and he isn't eating her food so it is just another day in the household.  Spike and Angel have similar reactions..a sniff or two of puppy's face and then back to what they were doing.  Sebastian, ever wary of anything that might pose a threat, hissed and backed up.  But he keeps away from every four footed furry in the house and only has eyes for hubby and youngest son.

What a sweet face! Is New Pup a rescue? Details!

I do feel a wee bit guilty - since he is not a rescue. He does come from the breeder who does Sheltie Rescue in Manitoba - just born 9 weeks ago in a litter of 7 and we fell in love with him when we saw him. All of our rescues have been adults(including a doberman and a husky cross when we were much younger)and when I saw Girly (our 14 year first rescue Sheltie)I just knew she was the dog for us. This little pup looks very much like her, although will be more of an apricot shading rather than mahogany. It is quite different having a pup around since he is a demanding little cuss and wants to be cuddled all the time. I think that is probably one of the things I miss about our cats (and dogs) is that I never knew them as young ones.

What an adorable pup! Congratulations on the newest family member! Shelties are wonderful dogs. I, too, have always wondered what my pets former lives as tiny kitties or pups were. They are adorable enough full grown, seeing them as babies may be more than I could stand!
