Meet Maximus Puppinus

This is after he spent 20 minutes patrolling the backyard marking his territory.


Max is a mess, serious need of grooming.
Apparently he's a West Highland terrier mix.
I think.


The Hallmark moment was ruined by freezing temps and 30 mph winds.
Teen Queen, upon meeting Max:
"Max! Where have you been all my life!"
Baby Queen, upon meeting Max:
"Wahhhhhh!"
We have a Love Triangle brewing.
TQ loves Max.
Max loves BQ.
BQ wants nothing to do with Max.


Okay, I've never had a boy dog before.
Whole new ballgame.
Charlie was a sweet dainty female who
truly seemed embarrassed by her potty needs.
Max just did his first business in his new yard and 
I have a couple of observations.
First, he's ambidextrous, showing peeing skill from either side.
Second, the post-pooping grass kick is a new phenomenon for me.
This little dog has some powerful back legs.

    My buddy has a Westie with diabetes. Be careful on how much people food, especially carbohydrates, that you and the girls give it. You don't want to be giving it injections twice a day.

    I'm going to lean towards Westie and Schnauzer. I hope he brings you nothing but joy!

    Wait until he starts making all of his territory in the house. We will never have another male dog.

    He's been neutered.
    And hasn't shown any indication of
    doing that inside.

    Don't even try to figure out the parentage. It'll drive you crazy.

    Right now his parentage is me, I'm his mom.
    And Deb does make the occasional visit.

    My Mollie does the post poop kicking. She's so happy and excited she'll come running right at me when she's done.

Play nice. None of you are too old for a spanking.
