Meet Tasha

Her full name is Natasha, but I'm going to call her Tasha for short. We had to select an official name that started with the letter "N" due to France's rules for dog registry; she was born in 2017 which is an "N" year. The breeder sent us this photo yesterday. We bring her home two weeks from today.

Tasha is about seven weeks old now.

Are we ready? I'm not sure. I need to get some puppy chow the next time I go to the store. I have a collar and a harness, but don't yet have a bed for her. We'll have to see how the sleeping arrangements work themselves out. I don't know if the two dogs will want to sleep together or separately. Callie has two primary sleeping spots in the house, depending on whether it's warm or cool or other factors only she knows. It will be interesting!

  4. Oh, I was just wondering what nickname you were going to give her, and "Nat" didn't sound like something you'd pick for a nickname... Tasha! Wonderful :)

  5. Nana or Tasha- both lovely names for your little baby girl! I hope Callie takes to her right away.

  7. Awwww. Hopefully Callie will accept, if not mother, the new "baby". That's what happened at our house some years ago. Advice: hide your leather shoes.

  8. France has rules about dog naming--who knew? Callie will mostly likely establish dominance over Natasha, I'm sure, and then she'll decide what the sleeping arrangements are. Have a bed for the little one ready. Females are much more concerned about dominance than male dogs are. We've learned this with the three dogs we've had in the time we've known you. The dogs don't seem to mind--they just accept it. Good luck! I hope she doesn't cry too much at night when you first get her.
