It's no secret I've been wanting to get a friend for Vlad for awhile. The girlfriend and I decided that it's for the best if we don't get another dog until we expand to a larger dwelling. But my parents adore Vlad and were talking about wanting a dog of their own. Today I went with my mom to a toy dog rescue in the city to pick up a three year old female pug named Daisy who is meant to be Vlad's playmate at my parents house.
She was a bit manic hyper at first which is to be expected since she was held originally by a backyard breeder who kept her in a small cage most of her life turning out litter after litter of puppies. Because of this she's not properly potty trained, never walked on a leash before today (though she did swimmingly on her walk with Vlad once she got the hang of it), and has absolutely no idea how to approach going up/down stairs.
I still think despite them getting Daisy my parents are plotting to steal Vlad from me. They coo over him too much and mention a little too often how they want to keep them for themselves. Makes me a tad paranoid.
Anyway! Here are some pix.
Daisy who is a teeny weeny little girl. She's a meager twelves pounds to Vlad's hulking thirty. She's like a pug ballerina or something.

Daisy and Vlad. The picture is less than wonderful because they were next to impossible to keep still together. The tiny girl on the left is Daisy and the big guy on the right is Vlad.
