I picked up my new dog yesterday from the airport. ^_^ She is a black and white Pomeranian and is only a couple days short of being 12 weeks old. Her foster name was Bootsie, but the name we have given here is Samantha, or Sam for short, though we mostly call her Sammie. In true geek fashion she is named after a sci-fi character, props to those that can guess from which series. She is quite the energetic little fluff ball and seems to be transitioning into our household fairly quickly. We already have a couple small dogs, a Chihuahua and a Pomchi (Pomeranian/Chihuahua mix), whom are not too happy there is another dog in the house, but they will eventually get use to her. She is pretty brave, no matter how many times the other dogs snarl, bark and snap at her she just keeps running back, trying to get them to play with her. It is actually funny at times because the Pomchi, named Nukii, keeps tucking his tail and running away when she bounds over towards him. I do literally mean bound over as well, she kind of hops as she runs, though tends to fall over whenever she tries to stop. She is already proving to be pretty smart, which is something these dogs are known for, though are also known for being pretty stubborn when it comes to training. I am not actually all that worried about her training, mostly as long as she comes when I call her and knows when to sit and stay I will be happy. If anyone reading this has ever raised a puppy before they know that my biggest challenges will be getting her properly house broken and teaching her not chew on anything and everything she can get a hold of.

If I ever remember to take any actually pictures I will upload them so everyone can see the little cutie.
