Quick update on Brigid (& Molly Maguire)

They're now eating together, at the same time from the same bowl. I put down two, but they jointly polish off the one and then move on to the other. Soul sisters already. Both will need to be micro-chipped; Molly hates collars and clothes under any circumstances and has already chewed off Brigid's nice new collar for her. If my attention wanders during their potty walk in the snow, Molly will try to rip off her skinny sister's parka, too. I'm sure she means well.

They really seem to love each other. Brigid's strong enough already to tussle a little and chase around after Molly. But when she first came in such a weakened state, their first time out in the yard Molly ran and got her favorite ball and dropped it at Brigid's feet. Now she just waves it in Brigid's face and runs off like a little speed demon, with Brigid close behind.

Molly had better watch out, too, because the new kid on the block is half rat terrier - so you know what that means! Not going to take too much guff. But Molly seems to love it when Brigid gets in her face. She's half mini beagle and half Pom herself, and only a year older.
