Hi Carol, Happie (Shortie) has been with us a few days short of 2 weeks. She seems to have fit well into the pack (we also have an aging Lab, a Lab-pit mix, a peke, a hound, and some sort of strange terrier conglomeration), finds Patti's house rabbits of immense interest, and is almost overwhelmed (only she knows why) by the backyard tortoises. She is into everything 24/7 and I am unable to take a step without being accompanied by a little black shadow. She knew how to use the doggy door immediately and seems on the way to being housebroken now. IOW, she's great.   Thanx/Dick & Patti
