[Zoey] is doing great. She loves to be vacuumed!! I have never had a dog act the way she does when [the vacuum] comes out. She will paw it and sit, while I'm doing the floor. If I ignore her, she will get in my way and sit. Needless to say we vacuum 2-3 times a day, with the brush extension!

She loves her time with Samson [doggie friend]. I think they wear each other out! She sees Harlei, my oldest daughter's POM, on a more daily basis. She is so careful with her.

We did change [Maggie's] name... after watching her for about a month, to Zoey. She really knows who she is!!
