Ando's home

Here's Ando in the car. He's a little dazed. Poor guy hasn't eaten all day. We're supposed to keep him from physical activity for 2 weeks.. that's gonna be hard. It was so hard with Maro. Isn't it sad. We have to keep him separated from the other butt munchs.

Waiting for Ando

We had Ando neutered today at Petmobile. It cost $71 with the s.n.y.p. coupon. We had to wait until after 6 p.m. to pick him up. In the meantime, here are the other two playing. Here's Maro in her crate right before we left to get Ando. Look at the way she's sitting... it's so Un-Ladylike.

Time to get a new couch

Look at the way Hiro's sleeping. He's half on the sofa and half on the ottoman. We really need a bigger living room set.

1 week Ando update

Ando's been with us for one whole week. He's starting to act like less chihuahua and more boston terrier. He's learning how to play with toys, and play fight with his brother and sister. Here's Ando waiting in the shade and for me to let them back in the house in the cool a/c. He finally jumped on the ottoman by himself. Doesn't he look a little bit healthier? A little more meat on his bones? Notice his shiny coat? 2 baths and daily hearty meals, but his fur is still kind of coarse. He's trying to figure out how to jump down. He looks part sasquatch there. We're trying to encourage him to play more and gain muscle in the weaker leg. It seems with the anti-inflammatory medication, he's become more active.
Ando's eye is looking better. He's able to open it a little bit more, but it's still hazy. My grumpy princess. She's so lady-like by crossing her legs.

When there's a will...

there's a way! My sister dropped by to give Ando some new toys as presents. One of them was a chew bone. There's Ando enjoying the new bone, and Hiro wanting to try it out so bad. He kept taking it away from Ando, so we left it in Ando's crate. While Ando's away playing with his other new toys, Hiro tries to get it out of the crate. Whoops, looks like Hiro got the chew toy. Wanna know how?? He pulled out the bottom tray. Go figure!

Playtime

This is the first time they've been allowed to play together. Ando starts off playing by himself. Maro & Hiro check him out. The mayhem starts... Hiro guards his chair.

Too cool

Hiro's new doggles. I don't think he likes them very much..at least for now. Hopefully, these will help keep debris out out of his left eye so it'll have a chance to heal while it's still allergy season. Are you lookin' at me? Keep rollin' your eyes, Hiro.
