Congratulations on your new little girl! Sounds like she is fitting in real well! When you get the chance you have to show us a picture of her and your Great Dane. Do you have any names picked out yet?

EarthAngel · 06-30-2010, 01:08 PM

Oh, I forgot to say she is just adorable!!!!

rik20101 · 06-30-2010, 01:30 PM

My daughter has called her Josie "Jo-Jo" a few times....maybe?? She is SO spunky. She was just outside with the kids running around the yard. She is just so happy....I am amazed.

Oh yea, I do need a pic of her and Lucy! Lucy is 34" at the shoulders and 105 pounds. Little one here is around 2-3 pounds!

rik20101 · 06-30-2010, 04:30 PM

She weighs 3.5 pounds

She was born near St. Pattys Day. Keely means beautiful in Irish....or Kiely is graceful. She could be Ki-Ki for short! LOL!

Congrats, she is just darling! Makes me want to give kissies all over that sweet little facie!!

charmed239 · 06-30-2010, 04:50 PM

I like all those names..you could Incorporate them and call her Keely Jo or Kiley Jo. and you could still call her Jo Jo or KiKi for nicknames..congrats she is beautiful,

rik20101 · 06-30-2010, 04:54 PM

Thank you everyone....I am completely smitten. My daughter keeps getting mad at me because I won't give her up!

Last night went great!! I put her in her crate around 11pm and put the crate on my headboard (there is no way she could fall off). She whined a little at first but I told her no, it is bedtime and put my hand up to the crate so she would know I was there. She settled down and slept until 7am!

I took her out this morning but I don't think she has ever been taught to use the bathroom outside. She will chase me or the kids and explore the yard but she doesn't potty. (we were out there for 30 min) So, when I brought her back in she ran around for a few min then peed in the kitchen. I told her no and took her to her pee pad. She ran around a bit, followed me into the kitchen and peed again. She also peed a small amount on the towel we keep under our Great Danes food/water bowls. Maybe I will get some cloth pads for her. I used cloth diapers for my son...same thing right!

So, I thought of a name this morning. For some reason "P" names have been in my head. She has a silvery face and where he hair parts down her back is a silvery white. So what about Pepper Ann?

I also made her an appointment to get a quick cut in the AM. She has so mats around her bottom (no where else) and I want to get her used to the whole process. I also want to get her used to a top knot since it looks like she is going to have a yorkie face.

Make sure she has had ALL her shots before taking her to a groomer or anywhere outside where other dogs go. She could easily get parvo or other diseases until she is fully protected.

Glad to hear she is settling in nicely. Take your time with the name, try different ones out for a while and something will click when it matches her personality and seems right.

She is already 15 weeks old. I took her records to my vet today. They said all she needs is a rabies and kennel cough. She is so hot right now. It is over 90 here every day and her hair is long a thick. Plus she has some mats around her bottom. She can't get her other shots for a week. Should I wait?

I think my daughter has just about settled on Piper!

She has had 3 DA2PPv
