Here's some more pics of Pearly. She loves her doggie. I love the 2nd pic of her and Pandora on Pandie's tower. Pearly's not supposed to be on it but I couldn't resist taking these pics.

Here's Pearly in her outfits. The first is her Ohio State Buckeyes Cheer Dress. The 2nd pic is her Glam dress and the third is her Skull Tank Dress. She just turned 11 months. My baby is growing up.

Well, here's Pearly. She is 8 months old right now. Just wanted to share a couple of pics with everyone. She's a wild one. More like crazed. She likes to think of our house as a racetrack and Pandora as a competitor. The red collar in the middle had white bones on it. We had to invest in a harness because she likes to pull on her walks and her neck hair was wearing thin. The harness and lead are black with white skull and crossbones to carry on the theme of her name "The Black Pearl". She's going through the terrible two's right now and into everything. Holes galore in our clothes, curtains, pillows. She's a handful but her cuteness makes up for it. We can't keep the patio window clean enough. She's always slobbering all over it. We had to get a 2nd gate for our bedroom because our cat Pandora was losing her "zen" room with Pearly in there all the time. We still have to keep the bathroom doors shut so she doesn't attack the tp and run with it. She always begs for attention. It's hard to get any "me/us" time. Her potty training is a work in progress. She still does both in the house when we're not looking. Like this morning 3x's. Twice up here and once downstairs. I've walked her 3 times since 5am and it's now noon. It's so hot out and she has been drinking alot of water. We have taking the divider out of her crate and she has been doing wonderfully. She hasn't had an accident in her crate in months. She's licking my feet right now trying to make up for going potty in the house. She likes to be held when I'm walking around. Not so much when I'm sitting down. She likes to chew on my hair so I've been wearing ponytails alot. It usually takes her 3 hours to calm down after being in the crate for any length of time so weeknights are crazy. Puppies are a lot of work. Their cute but whoa the energy level they have. Looking foward to her becoming a calm young woman in hopefully the near near future. We love her so much and she does bring a lot of joy to us. It's not all bad.

Pearly's growing up! She will be going into be spayed March 24th, a day before her 6 month birthday. I so wish we didn't have to put her through it. We have chosen to have laser surgery versus scapel for a faster recovery. Most likely she will be coming home with a cone on. TO GREGSGAL AND THE TP COMMENT: Well, we were talking about your Budha and my cat Pandora and the grabbing and running with the tp and what happens 2 days later after the comments....yep, Pearl grabbed her first and ran like heck. Practically the whole roll was undone. She had done this up and downstairs too many times so we had to end up taking the tp roll off the wall and putting it on the commode. She's such a cut-up. First pic I gather she is saying "Again with the camera Dad?????". Second pic she thinks she's royalty or something and the third pic "What chu talking bout Willis?".

These are two pics my Hubby took while I was at work yesterday. She's like going "huh?" on the first one. The second pic looks like she's thinking "when will he stop the madness of shining that light in my eyes". Well, she just got an "A" at the vet. Would have been an A+ but she has dandruff due to the weather and they gave us some Omega 3 to put in her food once a day. She's doing wonderfully with the divider in her crate as some Kaboodler's suggested. So a big thanks there! No accidents thus far. She has gotten strong enough to jump up on things now. Not so good. She's constantly chasing our cat Pandora around on the furniture. No escaping from the "tiny terror" now Pandie. The stuffed animal is her favorite horsey I got at Target in the baby section. Other toys from Walmart. Well just wanted to share my lil furry child with everyone.

Isn't she a cutie! We took advice and put the divider in her cage and she has been doing so well. Not one accident yet!!! This is her tee shirt that says "Cuter than your kid" I wish the pics had turned out better. No sun today and blinds and lamp didn't help much. Her heart toy has a lock and key on one side and a little handle. Kinda looks like a purse. She loves her rope a dope. This shirt used to be huge on her. She'll be 5 months old next week.
