Sharing Some News !!!

Good Evening!
Well I thought I would share some brilliant news with you all, I'm getting a Puppy!
Just like Millie she is a Wire-Haired Daschund.
I went to go pick her out on Friday Evening, boy it was hard they were all adorable, eventually I managed to pick one even though as soon as I set my eyes on them I'd decided! There were 3 Girls and 2 Boys.When I walked in only one pup looked up and she stole my heart straight away :)

We get to bring her home around the 16th of December ... I have decided to call her Holly seeing she will be home in time for christmas!
Here's a pic of the Pups, Holly is the one on the right of the 3 huddled together.


I am a little worried about how Millie will take to her, were going to introduce them slowly seeing she is a bit of a jealous dog but were hoping she will mother her :)

Just so she isn't left out on this post here's some pics of her being grumpy when getting a bath this afternoon!
