It took a little over ten days, but we found ourselves a puppy! (I've posted a short movie.)
We've called her Lucy. She was born around August 25, 2009, and is half shihtzu and half toy poodle, making her a shih-poo, or, as I prefer the term, shpoo. Housebreaking Lucy appears to be the first challenge, but she has adjusted to our house and family shockingly fast otherwise. She is also surprisingly quiet for a little dog, which is nice.
She even kept me company in the bathroom during one of my bouts of intestinal side effects from my cancer medicine today.
Oh yeah, I also finally got an iPhone yesterday. But it doesn't seem like a particularly big deal now.
