Daughter sent me a new pic so I can compare sizes.  Xara was sleeping in her new dog bed, which is actually a cat bed, and Andria put a gatorade bottle in with her to show me her size. LOL  She's not a whole lot bigger than the bottle!

Xara took to her new bed immediately and once she laid in it for a bit, she then went around the house gathering all her toys and carried them all back, one by one, to her bed. As if to say MINE!!! Andria said it was too cute watching her find all the toys and stuff them in the bed as she brought them back one by one.

She's also into pointing now. She points at the cats, she points at her toys, she points at Andria's feet right before she attacks them. And she's figured out her tail works! I guess her tail goes a mile a minute. She barked for the first time last night at a noise she heard in the apartment hallway. This little tiny bark LOL.

Here is a new picture of her in her bed with some of her toys and her gaterade bottle. Pardon the blurriness, it's a cell phone pic.

That is a precious picture of Xara in her new bed.  This is my Ringo with his toys that he had gathered up in a pile.  He was about 10 weeks and considerably bigger than Xara.  They do love there toys.  Of course, since then all these toys have been systematically destroyed by Ringo.  LOL. When I took this picture he had just woke up from a nap.  Not long now until you bring Ms. Xara home.

tooo cute!~ Ringo was one cute puppy!!! I guess I should be prepared to have every dog toy in the house put in Xara's bed huh? Sniper could have something to say about that LOL The closer it gets to getting her the more nervous I get about how Sniper is going to do with her. He loves to play, but he plays hard and rough so I'll definitely have to monitor play time. I have absolutely NO idea how he's going to be about sharing his toys. He used to play very well with the other dogs when he was younger, but since he no longer can be out with my other male dog he's had no one to try to take a toy away or play tug with him (at least of the canine persuasion). I can't see him hurting her at all, he's a lot of gruff and not alot of bite unless they fight back, but I don't need him terrorizing her either. I'm going to have to introduce slowly and let him know she's a baby and no threat to his "things". Food is a definite NO NO, ,she's going to have to be crated when he eats, that I know he's aggressive over. We are working on his issues, but still have much work to do.
He's never seen a puppy this small, so he could totally surprise me and love her to death and let her do whatever she wants around him.

Mel ... this is a picture of Bo (and my hubby) at 3.5 weeks.

He was the big one in the litter and you can see even he wasn't huge ...

He's now a big almost 70 pound boy full of vim and vigour ...

Melb - Xara is absolutely beautiful. You just might be surprised when Sniper sees her he may take to her just fine or even fall upside down in love with her. I am so looking forward to you bringing her home. So that we may watch her grow through the pictures you will share with us.
