Puppy girl!!

Introducing Guita! Her name comes from "tortuguita" - Spanish for "little turtle." It's Ian's favorite word in Spanish right now, and it works for her personality just fine. She's a sweet little rescue puppy: she was found with her siblings in a flower pot in early January and nursed back to health by a foster system. Her birthday is November 28 (estimated).


Here she is snuggling with Ian on her first night with us.


She loves Hugo's old scary mousy toy! Scary mousy won't live long with puppy lovin' of this sort!


Her fleecy ball is almost as big as her, but she's started playing with it a little... Scary mousy is still the toy du jour!


Sammy's lovely, but he's still not quite sure about Guita. This is as close as he's come and as long as he's stayed since Wednesday.


Hugo looking lovely in the sun! He likes the puppy, but he's still a little nervous around her, especially when she makes funny noises. See below for his true feelings about the noises....


She's already grown since we met her, but she still makes Hugo look big!


Sometimes things are still a little worrisome and confusing... but those times don't last too long!


Puppy in the sun!


Happy playing with the cat toys. Luckily Hugo likes the AirDog Squeaker ball-on-a-string, so it's a good trade!


Look at those teeth! Someday they will fill the hearts of the enemy with dread. For now, watch out, box bush!


Looking coy with her ear hung up on a box bush!


The beginnings of a very bad habit....


Hugo tells it like it is!


And the bonus pic of the result of so much playing: she is one zonked puppy!
