Mr. Wienie arrived yesterday and two girls are VERY excited about having a new puppy. They named him Ringo Max Crosby, after two great male musicians and a make-up brand. Perfect. To make it even more perfect Gymboree had a wiener dog line of clothing out! :o)
So far this is a timid little doggy that is submitting to our first dog, Trixie, quite nicely. He doesn’t know how to bark yet, but oh can he whine when we put him in the crate. Crate training is not for the faint of heart. Nor for those who don’t like to wear earplugs.
He is just darling when he runs and jumps. We only had a little black collar with rhinestones on it… so a more masculine collar along with an engraved tag are the order of the day tomorrow.
Ringo has already had eleven visitors and everyone made sure they pet Trixie! Such thoughtful friends!
Larisa has wanted a dachshund puppy for YEARS. I’m not even sure how many years. Lots. Needless to say, she is one happy camper.

Hello there from Germany! I stumbled upon your beautiful blog and am delighted to leave a comment. I am 34 years old, was adopted from El Salvador as a two-month old baby, grew up in NJ, was a missionary in Japan for four years, married a German man, and we are planning to be missionaries to Japan long-term. We are interesting in adopting from Colombia (because El Salvador is very difficult, even more than Colombia) and I found your blog through a google search. Your daughter is the cutest thing ever! I showed my husband the photo and we just melted. You are so blessed!!!!!!!
