Name the Puppy


Hope everyone had a great Christmas. We were just glad for everyone to be able to be together.
Here's the new puppy in her Christmas dress. She hasn't been to the groomers yet, but she's still cute. She's turning out to be more work than Peach thought. She's doing well with her though. She has to go outside and "potty" really often, and she's chewing EVERYTHING, but she's so much fun. We all laugh at her continually.
About the fleas, my sister had a similar problem, and the vet told her to bathe the puppy with blue Dawn dish detergent. We tried it, she didn't seem uncomfortable. When we soaped her little body up, the fleas all ran to her face where there was no soap. We were able to pick them off and kill them. She is cream colored so it was easy to see them. We rinsed her extra good. We haven't seen a flea since. We are watching when we bathe her though. I plan to steam the carpet when we take down our Christmas tree, Monday, just in case.
Peach still can't think of a name she likes. If you have any suggestions we'd love to hear them.

  1. That's a tough one. How about Sugar. When I think of peaches, I think of Sugar and Cream and Cream doesn't sound like a great name for a dog, but Sugar is sweet. No pun intended. Well, anyway, just a thought. Glad everyone had a good Christmas. Have fun with the puppy.
    Lots of Love

  2. Tiffany or Tiffy. Sugar sounds cute too, though.
