Reesi has been wanting a dog for years. We tried giving her a sister instead, but that only held her off for about 1 year. We tried buying her a pacman frog, but we killed it in 11 days. A few months ago I was reading one of those Pinterest posts where it was words of wisdom for dads with daughters. One of them was, "One day she will ask for a dog. Let her have one." It also didn't help that her cousins got the cutest puppy for Christmas. So we caved and agreed to get one for her birthday.
The problem is when I start shopping for something I can get kind of obsessive and once I decide I want something I don't want to wait. So after a week of staying up until 11:00 browsing puppyfinder.com and researching all kinds of dogs I talked Larry into the perfect pup. Hopefully, she will be ready to come home the first week of February.
Reesi cannot wait and has already set up her bed and toys. This lead to her and Elye playing dog. Elye is, of course, the dog and she usually gets in trouble with her master. Reesi has newspaper laid out for the dog to pee on and the next thing I know Reesi's yelling, "Mom, Elye peed on the paper." So Reesi got some real practice cleaning up her doggy's pee. Nice. I guess we will be doing a lot of that over the next several months.
