Kathy Did It

Okay, we got another third dog, but it wasn't me this time. Someone Kathy works with has a mother-in-law who was going into a home and couldn't take any of her three dogs. We got the runt of the litter. A 13 year old Staffordshire terrier named Maimi, as in Eisenhower. It doesn't really matter what you call her because she can't hear a damn thing. She's also blind in one eye and is missing teeth on one side so her tongue is always hanging out. She's also a little over weight, but who isn't, and she's very sweet.

Willow was not immediately a big fan, but she's getting better around her. Willow's just not crazy about anyone who may draw attention away from her. Sandy is fine with her but spent the first couple days trying to mount her. The problem was their size difference made in impossible for him to do anything but stand over her. It was kind of funny.

Our plan is to make her feel warm and welcome for the rest of her days which is pretty easy since mostly what she likes to do is sleep. She's too short and lame to deal with the stairs at our house so I've been sleeping on the mattress downstairs, at least until she's completely comfortable with where everything is. I even had to modify the doggie door since she was too short to use it, but now she's doing okay.
