Furry Friends

After writing my previous post I realized that I hadn't mentioned two important members of our family, our dogs Tucker and Daisy! I'm certain they will be mentioned in plenty of posts, so let me take a few moments to describe our pups:

Tucker is a two-year old Coton de Tulear. What is a Coton de Tulear you ask? Cotons are fluffy, white dogs from Madagascar with hair that feels like rabbit fur. Our Tuck is a gentle, kind, chicken of a dog. He's earnest, playful and very intelligent. The night we brought Kensey home from the hospital, Tucker left his bed and slept at the foot of the bassinet. If he were human, he'd definitely be voted 'Everybody's Pal' in the high school superlatives.


Daisy is a three-year old Imperial Shih Tzu. It's been said that Shih Tzus guarded the throne of China, and knowing Daisy that makes perfect sense. She's a little, bitty thing that's a royal pain in the ass! Daisy likes to call the shots when it comes to walking on the leash and demands that someone gets her the toys she desires out of the toy box. The trouble is that she's really cute, and occasionally lovable, so we (ahem...mostly Ira) comply. What can I say, we're suckers for this face.
