We got Cupcake on Monday, but there was some question as to whether she could remain with the family. Seems they had spayed her just the day before, and she wasn't feeling very good when we took her home. Poor little thing. But the vet put her on antibiotics, and she's been perking up steadily since.
We got her to be an inside dog, but strangely enough, she prefers to be outside. She'll come inside to eat (and to pee in my laundry room floor), but the rest of the time, she's like our porch monitor, staying under the porch swing all afternoon, basking in the sun and playing with my sister's Australian shepherd.
