Meet my new puppy, Wah-Wah!
I have always wanted to have a puppy to love. However, since I have been a traveling consultant, and lived by myself, it was difficult to have a puppy but not see it for most of the week.
Now, with the slower economy (middle of July 2001), and for my new role in my company (health info system programming, in Visual Basic and Crystal Reports) I am spending a LOT of time in Atlanta. So it it time for a new companion.
Here are info about my puppy:
Name Wah-Wah (Chinese for "Little girl", also short for Chihuahua) Breed Chihuahua - Female Birthday February 18, 2002 Purchased for $399 from a pet shop nearby - 7/28 Sat. 3pm.
Other interesting facts:
- Shopping list for her first trip home: Water bowl, food bowl, leash, collar, dog food, three toys (plastic bone, rope knot, "alligator"), odor and "stain" remover, "doggie treat" snack for rewarding / training her.
- Her temperament: Extremely nice!! Has not barked since I got her; has not destroyed any shoes / furniture / clothes yet, has not soiled my house yet. Loves people. Loves me. Does not like to run around, but just sit and watch me.
- Her first day with me:
- Got home, took a nap in my arms.
- Went to ACCC with my younger brother Alex and I. There was a dinner event there, and I did not want to leave WahWah by herself at home. People LOVED her, and she was very peaceful - just a bit scared.
- Slept in my bed at night.
