A few weeks ago I wrote a quick post about how the lady friend and I had decided to take the plunge into dog ownership and all the craziness that is a puppy.
Anyway, it’s five weeks later and we were finally able to bring Dutchess home. Dutchess is a female Boston Terrier that is tipping the scales at about 3.5 lbs right now. We’ve only had her two days and it’s already a circus. There have been quite a few accidents around the house (both solid and liquid), but luckily she has hit the linoleum almost every time. She has already almost caused one car accident when some crazy woman slammed on her breaks in the middle of the road to get out and pet her. Thankfully she actually sleeps all night long which is a huge bonus. I thought for sure I would be getting up at 3 a.m. to take her out. Hopefully I didn’t just jinx myself.
Thanks to everyone that suggested a name. In the end we decided to go with a family name. In some weird twist of coincidence both of our Dads had dogs named Dutchess growing up.

um, are you sure it’s “Duchess” and not “Duke”? I definitely see a protrusion in one of the photos…
