No, it's not Roxy's twin. Say Hello to Princess. She is a 20 pound, 11 week old Boxer Shepherd mix. We picked her up this morning at the Macomb Humane Society. She's not quite as bad as the $150 free fish in my front room, but I don't think I'll let my wife and kids go to the pet store together again.
Tom was asking Santa for a dog, and we thought that we should all view the dog and see what kind of a disposition she would have with the boys. Well, they opened the door to let her into the room and she went right for Billy and Tommy. Enough said. Tom's unexplainable want for a Golden Retriever, turned into a love for our Princess. Even Jim is accepting and wanting to play...sometimes more than Princess is. They said she wasn't potty trained, but so far the only accident she had was in the pet store. I saw she was ready to go, and I was heading outside with her, when a couple of little girls, whose mother I knew, bent down to pet her....oops!!! Too much excitement led to "Clean up on aisle one!" Here, she has done all her business outside, and even pooped on our walk around the block, which Tom volunteered to pick up. I guess we'll see how long that lasts. Now we have the night to contend with. Hope she's ready to entertain company soon. She is very cute and loving.
