Here's our new puppy, Hildegard. She's named after Hildegard von Bingen. Mixed breed, who knows what. 7 weeks, 6.6 pounds of spunk.
oh she is cute !!! she will be a very good dog :)
I hope she'll be good! Right now she's a piranha, with her little needle baby teeth. But we're making good progress with house training and getting her to know her name, so fingers crossed!
oh what a cutie, best of luck with Hildie :)
I've had dogs in the past, now I live with my daughter's cat.
There's nothing quite like the feeling of a cat sinking its teeth into your ankle or Achilles tendon because it wants something to eat.
Aaah she's adorable! Give her lots of pets for me
All I can say is just Awwwwwwww, what a cuty :)

Funny, she doesn't look like my idea of a Medieval mystic. ;D But she is a really cute dog.
Awww, such a cute little puppy. I thought puppies had to be older before leaving their mothers. Of course, you will be a great new mommy.

They should be. But this was an emergency situation. She's doing well. When we got her she was 5 lbs, and now two weeks later she weighs 9 lbs! Still tiny, but a much more healthy weight for her size. She's hungry all the time, and is enjoying exploring the house. As she finds new ways to get herself into trouble, our puppy-proofing gets extended. Yesterday she decided to chew on a lamp cord. So, now all the exposed cords on the first floor are covered in cord management tubes.
I'm so tired. So. Tired.
That was a good weight gain! I am glad you got her to care for her out of the emergency situation. Yikes about electric cords!
You will be tired for a while, dealing with an active baby puppy!
