I didn't get a chance to answer your comment about our new dog the other day.
We got her May 14th. Our vet found her wandering out by his house in the country and called my mom to see if she wanted to take her and give her a home. He said he thinks Sissy is about the same age as Chachi - three years old and they are exactly the same size. She is the sweetest little girl dog and Chachi and Sissy got along really well during the "home trial", so my mom said she would take her. Her little silky terrier had passed away last spring and she missed having a little dog to cuddle and care for. My mom and Sissy bonded immediately. Sadly, she only had Sissy for about six weeks before she died. Sissy is our dog now and we love her so much. She is the funniest little girl, a real comedienne. She makes me laugh all the time.
She came from a loving home, she is very well behaved and loves all people. We have no idea what her history is or how she got separated from her family. The vet called around to the animal shelters and checked the paper. No one reported a lost dog matching her description.
Thanks for the backstory re: Sissy.
