Miss Lady is a purebred Shih Tzu and is just under 8 weks old. Despite her small size Lady is fearless. She regularly jumps Shadow when his back his turned and doesn't quit until he has her pinned to the ground, after he releases her it starts all over again. Shadow has been extremely patient with her.
Just like young children, we have noticed some big differences between our boy and our girl. The biggest one happens to be their dramatics. I have never once heard shadow whine, I could be plucking his nose hairs and he wouldn't cry. Lady on the other hand is a whole new story. Her paws got particularly dirty so I gently held her close to me and got some luke-warm water in my palm and started cleaning her feet. You would have thought I was water-boarding her the way she was whimpering!
Despite her whining Lady has been a whole lot of fun for us. Shadow doesn't really like to cuddle up in bed. He doesn't even like being petted. Lady on the other hand can't get close enough to you, she wants to be constantly held and is great at giving affection.
Oh, and she will be a Broncos fan!
