Apparently we have got another little piggy. Dad said Tessa loves food and wags her tail in time with her mouth when eating. LOL

They are starting to suspect she was drugged for the 7 hour car trip home… she slept the entire way and was so placid and laid back. Now she turned into little puppy hellfire. I just laughed and said yep, that’s a puppy for you.

Her introduction with Oreo went very well - they have quickly established the pack order and have had no problems at all beyond their first meeting where Oreo ignored her and Tessa freaked out. Now Oreo just growls if Tessa gets too pushy, and Tessa is, surprizingly, respecting that. Though dad said she likes to push her luck. Just like a little kid, lol. I think Tessa might be starting to emulate Oreo, too - dad said they were laying in the same position watching him today, lol.

Angel is absolutely freaked out. He has a great relationship with Oreo, but he’s afraid of pretty much everything and everyone else beyond the family. This new puppy in the house has him spazzing. But my brother said he’s extremely curious… just too scared to check it out. I’m sure that will change with time.

Cory has become the most doting daddy ever. Despite his teenager-ish attitude that is common to him, he’s apparently turned to mush around his new daughter. My dad (who stayed home from work to dog-sit - didn’t want to leave the pup alone yet) said that Cory called home from work at 9 just to check on Tessa. It’s so cute!

I so wish I could be there. Right now I settle for dad’s stories and seeing pictures and webcam.
