Ok, they're not exactly puppies - I'm told they are both about 4 years old - but that's what the kids call them. They are Lhasa Apsos that belong to Kenny's parents. They are unable to care for them at this time, so they are staying here for now. The kids were pretty excited about it, and I enjoy having them here too (most of the time!)
This is Sammie, or as Ellie calls her, "Yammie" ('cause she still doesn't get that initial 'S' sound!) Sammie is the smaller of the dogs, but she is definitely in charge. A bit of a princess, but I'm hoping she'll adjust to her new status 'casue she's not the only princess in this house :) She LOVES having her belly rubbed and is so patient with the kids - they love to pet her.
This is Bandit. He's a bit bigger than Sammie, but she definitely bosses him around. Bandit LOVES to play - Graham often plays fetch wtih him, and he's discovered a new game that Bandit enjoys...chasing the light from a flashlight around the room :) Bandit is a little bit nervous, but he's settling in ok.
They have been with us since right before Christmas, and everyone seems to be adjusting just fine. We'll enjoy having them here as long as they're with us. I'm sure you'll see them lurking about in our pictures around the house...they like to know what's going on and be around the action.
