We have a new addition to our family. She's a sweetie, not too much trouble and totally has the default sit down cold. She hasn't learned anything else yet. So far Gimme seems to like her and they are getting along well. I was even able to feed treats with them sitting near each other.
Here is a picture showing Gimme with her new best friend, Snowy, (named in honor of Snowmageddon 2012).
People keep asking me where her spots are. Obviously she isn't a Dalmatian; I suspect Snowy is one of those very light colored Golden Retrievers. I have some concerns about her conformation and don't know if she will be able to jump well enough for agility. She doesn't seem to be very light on her feet and those feet are, quite simply, HUGE. However, on a positive note, she seems very comfortable with the training dogwalk. Also, she really has the coolest personality.
Clearly being unable to get my car out for the fourth day in a row has left me with far too much time on my hands. Fortunately I am not one of the many people in this part of the state that are without power, and even worse, without television and internet. Also I have plenty of food in the cupboards. Sadly I'm out of good things to drink and when the last of the wine runs out, I may be forced to drink <gasp> water.
As hard as this experience has been, it gratifying that many people are able to enjoy my snowed-in complete lack of a life...
