Meet Ahri!

Well, we have a new addition to our family and much to our family's guessing over the holidays it is not human. My Christmas gift from Ryan this year was a small dog to be my companion to keep me company during the week!

We had previously gone to the pet market in Hong Kong before and just window shopped at dogs (who doesn't love doing that!) so we knew we wanted to get a miniature pinscher before we went shopping. We loaded up on dog supplies in the states before we returned as many items are expensive here that we could easily bring back with us. Once we returned, we headed back to the pet market after new years to find our new addition!


There were only a couple of stores that had miniature pinschers to choose from. One had 3 brothers that were all brown which wasn't the type of coloring we preferred. Another store had one small female that was black and tan. After debating between the two types, we chose to go with the small female. She is around 3 months old, small enough to hold in the palm of your hand. Her name is Ahri, a name I picked off a list Ryan showed me from characters from a video game he plays so that we would both be happy.

The past few days have been filled with cuddles, playing and potty training. She has been doing well so far though she is fighting a cold she caught from being in with other puppies for awhile.
