Piper, our Schnug

 

Piper was born on July 30.  Her mother was a mini Schnauzer and her dad was a Pug.   They sometimes call these Schnugs,  I still call her a mixed breed and cute as a button.

You can see she has a pug nose, and a pug tail, but her hair is more like her momma's and she has the eyebrows of a schnauzer.

 

Piper weighed in at 2 pounds 4 ounces on her first vet visit and is 12.5 inches long.

She was cold going outside so I made her a coat out of a sock.  She is so small it is hard to find something boughten for her to wear yet.

 

  It is exhausting to have a puppy again, potty training, teething, yipping, but so fun.

Stray Kitty

  Someone dumped some more stray cats in our area.  They always find their way to our door where they know a meal and some kind words, and sometimes a permanent home is waiting.   This beautiful male ginger kitty showed up a couple of weeks ago and finally got brave enough to come up and eat, he is so skinny but is now shy but friendly.   Now to win him over and find him a new home, and fatten him up.

 

What a sweet face

  Here Kitty kitty, trust me.

   A full tummy makes for a happy kitty.  He thinks he likes me after all.

   Just look at those beautiful markings,   Anyone looking for a new friend?

Spring Snow

   The day before we had been sitting their eating our night meal, the weather was 80.  Don't like the Iowa weather, just wait a day.
