Some more about Butch

Just FY everybody’s I, Butch is pronounced Bootch, with a Mexican accent.

She is adjusting very well, playing and getting into the chewing stage with gusto. We invested in some good chew toys right away - luckily.

She came seeming to know to poop outside on the balcony, we are still working on the peeing though. Mikko has risen to the occasion nicely. He is very diligent about cleaning up after her immediately. This is the perfect time for a new puppy, because most of our lives revolve around home. Matthew and/or I are home most of the day. And we have gotten all of our trips out of the way and are happy to take a break from traveling, possibly until our big journey home in July.

The dog below is who we believe to be her papa. We call him Shy Dog because … he’s really shy. We hadn’t seen him for months until the other day when we took her out, he emerged from his hole in the bushes. We couldn’t get close to him, so they never really met face to face

She has the same pensive look.
