|   1st Time Puppy Owner 
  Hi everyone!  I thought I would introduce myself and let you all know that I have been "lurking" for a few days.  We just bought a Morkie and got her last Friday.  I have never had a dog before and am EXTREMELY unsure of myself even though I have 5 children!  
 We named our puppy Eliza Doolittle and she is absolutely adorable, although, things have definitely not gone smoothly.  Two days after we got her I broke her leg--it was horrible.  She likes to follow me and she got tangled in my feet.  The Vet wrapped her leg--so cute-- and she seems to be feeling better, but, now Miss Eliza has blood spots in her stools.  I have another appointment with the Vet today.
 
 To top it off my youngest son has developed a case of hives.  I am trying to convince myself it has nothing to do with our puppy.  We'll see.  I have had kids with random cases of hives before.
 
 I just wanted to say that you all seem like such loving and kind people and I hope to be one of you.  Wish us luck here in our castle of chaos!
