I remember bringing my girl home, she was so small I had to lock her in the bathroom when I went to work so my cats wouldn't hurt her. Now she rules the house! I took pictures of her every week and I am glad I have such a beautiful record of her development. Emma is 4 lbs but what a fearless personality she has developed. I think the terrier when shown affection and proper care is the best pet ever. I know your little one is going to be special too, the excitement is overwhelming! My girl is four now but always my baby. Good luck to you
