Dog gone Bunny

We have a new family member. Her name is Reese and she wishes that she was a bunny so she could play with Darcy and Charlotte.

Dave was helping out a friend when they found Reese. She was lonely, lost, and super scared. They knocked on every door for three blocks to find her owners, but no one knew her and where she belonged. She didn't have a name tag on her collar. They called all the shelters to see if anyone had reported her; no one had. Dave brought her home (without permission!) and I was deadset on her staying at our house. The first night she slept with him in the extra bedroom and their mutal attachement was obvious. Over the next few days, she showed how well she had already been trained (house broken, sit, stay, etc).

We went to San Diego for Devin's second birthday the next weekend and she came. Reese did great with all of the kids, adults, and other dogs while there... several people fell in love with her (including my dad)!

Needless to say, after the trip I gave in and decided that she could stay. Oh, was Dave excited! She is his pal; the moment he walks in the door, she gets so excited, but still waits paticently for him to come to her. She LOVES people and really wants to play with the bunnies (but she isn't allowed to yet). She doesn't bark and only whins/crys a little bit when she wants attention.

We took her to the vet this week. According to the vet, she is probably between 1.5-2 years old and is a mix of mini-pinscher and chihuahuas. She weights less than Darcy! The vet gave her several shots and checked her overall health.

Melissa named her Reese because she looks like a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup and we thought that the name went well with Mr. Darcy and Charlotte.
