The shih tzu sisters get a visitor

At least two of the shih tzu sisters came up the stairs looking for me this morning. I could glimpse Flower and Dottie out in the hall from the bed. I don’t know when they started, but I could hear someone going up and down the stairs until I got up at 7:30.

I called Mom this morning and asked her if she wanted to come by and meet the girls. She thought they were adorable. She said they looked like three old women. The girls were relatively calm when she was here. Candy and Dottie let her pet them, although Dottie growled once. She asked if she could pet Flower, but I told her she probably shouldn’t. The most fearful of the sisters was growling and she was pressed up against the back of the play yard, as far as she could go, her eyes big.

Need Chicken Jerky!

When I got home from taking Mom shopping, the shih tzu sisters were ecstatic. When I fed them their Milo’s Kitchen chicken jerky, Dottie was so excited that she accidentally bit my finger instead of grabbing the food. She didn’t draw blood; she just startled me.

I think that the girls miss their dog friends, either from their foster home at Barbara’s, or maybe even from their time at the puppy mill. When they hear barking on TV, the shih tzu sisters jump up excitedly and run in to the living room.
