We've had Zoe for 5 and a half years. She is a great dog, but she is rather large, and does not like to cuddle. The kids have been asking for a small, cuddly dog. They were quite surprised when they unwrapped a kennel with little Roxy in it, on Christmas.
She met three important criteria: she's small, she's cuddly, and she is not yappy. When she does bark, she has a very deep voice, like she's trying to sound tough.
Macy accidentally found out about the secret on the evening of Christmas Eve when she saw a text that came in on my phone. So she went with Steve to go pick up Roxy from the family who was selling her to us. She was sad that the surprised was ruined, but she still felt special by getting to go pick her up.
On the 5th day of her living at our house, one of her ears started standing up all silly. We started taping her ears down to train them, and they're looking great!
Zoe didn't really seem to care about this new little dog for the first week. She must have thought we were dog-sitting.
Then they started to play. Lots of nibbling and rough-housing. Everyday, all day. Zoe LOVES her new sister!
They're always laying around together. Wherever Zoe goes, Roxy will follow.
They both love to lay in the warmth of the sun.
The kids are still madly in love with Roxy. And now they pay so much more attention to Zoe too.
Welcome to the family, Roxy!!
