·In just 3 hours we'll be picking up our new baby girl. She has the same Mom & Dad as Odie so we know she's got good genes. I hardly slept all night thinking about cuddling the new baby & the puppy kisses & puppy breath. We've gone thru so much these last few months with both Patty & Daisy dying & Odie being a bit at loose ends suddenly being an only child. He'll be happy to have a sibling again.
Our new baby was born on St Patrick's Day so we thought an Irish name was appropriate -- Molly McDoodle. We were first thinking of Iris as a name - I'm an eye doc so it seemed fitting, but then thinking about it, Iris seemed like it might be too sophisticated for such a scruffy Disney-dog breed. Odie's name is actually "OD" which is the Latin medical abbreviation for Oculus Dexter which means "right eye." In the beginning when I'd write about him as OD folks either thought it was pronounced "odd" or they thought we meant "over-dose" so I started to type it as Odie so the correct pronounciation was understood.
Anyway -- I'm so excited I can hardly sit still typing this! I'll take photos & post them soon.
Gabriele, Odie & coming soon, Molly
(ps - I guess I'm finally ready to update my signature without having Patty & Daisy's names attached - they're forever in our hearts)
