My fiancé and I had talked about getting a puppy once we got married but my fiancé had an opportunity to get an 11 week old Yorkie/Scottie mix about a week ago and we took advantage of it. When we saw a picture of her, we both fell in love with her and it became a no brainer for us. My fiancé had already picked out the name "Journey" for her and the name fits her perfectly.
She picked Journey up on August 7 at about 4:30 and she immediately established herself as a Facebook star as we posted a ton of pics of her as did her two "Aunts." Everyone was wanting to lay claim to her as "their" dog but there was never any doubts as to who she belonged to. I did not get to see her until August 13 and she immediately ran to me and jumped up in my arms. We were off to a good start. Journey is like lightning in a bottle with the attention span of a gnat. She just goes around looking for things to get into. She is usually successful. Journey and I are going to get along great. She has such a sweet, loving personality but she has the ability to turn into the Tasmanian Devil at a moment's notice.
My fiancé and I decided that I should bring Journey home to the mountains of western North Carolina. There were lots of tears from both of us when I left. It was very tough to leave my fiancé behind because she belongs with me and Journey. Journey rides well and slept almost all of the way home. I brought her into the house and introduced her to the Ellie the cat. Journey did not even notice Ellie for about the first ten minutes but when she did, Journey greeted Ellie with lots of kisses. They are still trying to feel each other out as roommates. There were a few times that Ellie had to tell Journey to back off but it was all good.
