New additions!!

Our newest additions!! Not the best pictures but the best I could get. Max and Ruby are Chihuahua/Dachshund mixes. We rescued them from the pound. They were taken there at about 6-7 weeks old. On Tuesday they will be 11 weeks. They are very playful, and the boys love it. They help feed them, and go out with me to take them potty. We are still working on housebreaking them, but they are doing pretty good with it. I think about 75% of the time they go to the door to let us know they need to go out. They were both 6lbs when we got them, tomorrow it will be 2 weeks. I really don't think they will get to much bigger since they are such small breed dogs. They fight like normal brothers and sisters, all the time!! You can give each of them the exact same thing and they will fight the other one for the one they have. Usually this is started by Max. They do love to sleep cuddled up to each other. I think it is funny that they each have a personality of one of the boys. But they sure are some funny puppies. The boys love them so much!! So do we!







This is MAX. He is the quiet instigator, kind of like Dayton. We thought he was gonna be the lover, he kind of is, but really likes his independence! He loves to give kisses, especially to Hillman!! Max is more doxie looking with his markings, his ears are just plain silly. They don't really go up or lay down, they are somewhere in the middle.




































This is RUBY! She is the fighter and cuddler,just like Cohen! She loves to just pounce on Max for no apparent reason! She does not like when I hold him, she will try to get up in my lap and bark at him. She is very jealous too! She is really the lover, she wants to get in your lap most of the time! When she does she just wants to be rubbed, especially her belly! Ruby has more of the Chihuahua look and markings. Thank goodness she doesn't have the stick up ears!!
