So yeah. I got another puppy. Her name is Isabel (if you’re wondering, yes, she’s named after that Isabel. Yes, I’m a dork.) She’s part English Bulldog, part terrier. Some sort of rat terrier mix. Which means her conception would have been very funny to see.

She’s ridiculously photogenic, as you might observe. We had to fight a case of tapeworms, kennel cough, and one other parasite, the name of which I can’t remember. But all seems to be well now. She’s eating everything. Chewing everything that’s left. And dividing her spare time between pooping and sleeping.

Harper is slowly adjusting. Very slowly.

More pics after the break.

A rare occurence when she’s chewing on something she’s allowed to chew on.

I swear, the grass-stalk-in-the-mouth thing wasn’t staged.

This was staged.

Love this picture.

As I said, Harper’s a bit aloof right now.

Crate training.

She’s not allowed on the couch, a rule that’s been broken about twelve times in the first week.

This last one is just stupid cute. Both were kinda’ sick. So both got couch privileges. Isabel adores Harper. In this case, I think Harper was just too tired to get up and move, as she usually does.
