Meet Lucy, our newest family member! She's an 8 week old mini dachshund pup. ('Dachs' = badger; 'hund' = dog. They were orginally bred to hunt badgers apparently, although the miniature one's were bred for smaller game such as rabbits.)
She is seriously cute. The kids are besotted and Kipp, our 2 year old dog (of unknown heritage - he came from the RSPCA), seems to have taken to her too. He's even willing to share his bed, which is a good sign. Hopefully they'll become best buddies!
Complete cuteness overload!!!!!!! Lucy is too too adorable - kids are too!!!
ReplyDeleteShe's at risk of being 'over-loved' by the kids!! ;)
DeleteSuch adorable puppy dogs they both are. The photo of Kipp's paw atop a little Lucy brought a smile to my face.
