Meet Thursday!

Ok, so you know how I said we were thinking of getting another dog closer to the spring? Well, it is now closer to the spring than when I said that...



Meet Thursday! She's 9 weeks old and her mom is an Australian Shepherd, but we don't know what dad was. She's a cutie and I love that she has eyebrows just like Trillian's!


We named her after the main character in Jasper Fforde's Thursday Next series. If you were wondering, Trillian is named after a girl in Douglas Adams's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Rand and Moiraine (the bearded dragons) are named after characters in Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time Series. Bear is named after our friend Val's dog's (Copper's) toys. It's a long story.


We picked her up at a Furburbia Pet Adoption Center in Park City. We brought her home and Trillian is in love. She tries to get Thursday to chase her, but it didn't work out so well for her at first. By last night, they were playing like old pros.




The cat, however, reacted something like this:


It doesn't help matters that Thursday is small enough to get into all of his hiding places.

Aunt Ang,
I really like your new puppy. It's funny it gets to ride in your car and it's cute it likes to play with Trillian. I am glad they are buddies...

I Love you!
