Our puppy has arrived!

Our puppy has finally arrived! He certainly is an energetic little fellow, and he has kept us busy all afternoon since we brought him home. But I snapped a couple of pictures of him right before he went to sleep, so I could share them with you. Enjoy!

I think this little cutie should be the image of the newest puppy in Fashion Cents Deluxe!

That's a good idea! I've been thinking about making him our company mascot!

By the way, Victoria and I finally agreed on a name for the little guy - Pippin, after the hobbit from the Lord of the Rings who kept getting into mischief! Pippin also happens to be the name of Victoria's favorite kind of apple. And we can shorten to "Pip" for a cute nickname!

Actually, he could appear occasionally in all of your games, just like Fashion Cents and Word Play appear in Dirk Dashing. You could program him to bark so that we don't miss him!

Hi

It's been a while since I was on the forum. As you can imagine our little guy Pippin is keeping both Troy and me quite busy. He is so much fun, but a lot of work too. Potty training is coming along. I'd say he is getting it, but it is more a matter of us getting it. We are still trying to understand his signals, but we are getting there. Soon we will be able to just let him roam around without watching his every move. Then I can spend a little more time here in the forum.

We will get some more pictures up soon! :)

He Is So Cute!!!!!!!

Just a quick update about Pippin....

He is now 18 weeks old and getting bigger every day. He actually outgrew his first little bed, but still loves to curl up in its shell. He pops the pillow out and lays down on it - rather over it. His head hangs off one side and his butt and legs hang off the other side. Very cute - but I would imagine not too comfortable. So we bought him a new bed this week. It is not as cute as the first one, but fits him much better.

He is learning to "focus", "look at me", and "sit". He is such an adorable little puppy and so loving. I really love that little guy. :D He is so much fun to watch as he plays. We have often turned the TV off so we can watch his antics! His squeaky toy is his favorite, but he likes just about anything. And he usually wants the toy you have - even if he just gave it up to get the toy he has now.

I guess we are enjoying Pippin so much because he is the first puppy for either of us. So I'm sorry to go on so much about him, but if you have animals, I'm sure you understand.

Well, I will keep you posted as time goes by. Thanks for reading my post. :)

Maybe you could post some more pictures. I'd love to see how big he's getting. He is adorable - and i know what you mean about loving your pet. I have a dog too and he is the light of my life.
