Yes - that's Millie. She was my Christmas present, sort of. We adopted her a few days after xmas last year, just shy of 9 yrs at the time. Gosh I love that dog! We adopted her *sister* Holly just before xmas, and Mills needed a home.

Holly is also 9, but thin, blond, looks like a puppy. Really friendly. While Mills was 17 lbs, had just had surgery (6 in incision on shoulder, half her fur shaved off) and half her teeth had to be removed due to dental disease.

Also on her record, said she could not walk on leash, NO kids or other pets, will not groom or ride in car, etc, etc.

Looked awful, bad rep.

So the rescue could not find anyone who would take her, and hated separating from holly after all their lives together. Asked me if I could, ???possibly??? deal with 4 dogs???


I asked dh and how could he say no to that mug?

I told my mom "I got a fur coat for Christmas!" then showed her my dog. LOL. Actually, Millie is a very good girl for me - even nice to the little 3yr old kids that come over. Never had a problem with her.

Fur grew back, too.


I have another also, Ozzy, a black one. They are about addictive, aren't they? Can't have just one!

The fourth dog is a papillion - and I can walk them all at one time.
