Nikki's Mom

Discussion Starter · Jun 29, 2010

Hubby and I drove up to TN to pick up our retiree. (Ch Phlick's Total Chaos) It was so great seeing Janet (the breeder) again. We got to see her current show dogs, and her other retirees - and some absolutely adorable 5-week old puppies, too! Heaven!! :wub:

We brought Chaos (we are not changing her name - her nickname will be Keiko) home last night. She was a little shy and confused on the drive home, but she is doing great fine. She's a very sweet girl with a similar personality to my Nikki. (They are mother and daughter) Her body is shaved, and her head/face hair is similar to a poodle cut. I will let it grow out to a puppy cut with a topknot like Nikki. She has large, expressive eyes. Very pretty.

Nikki and Keiko are tentative around each other. After only one day, Nikki is becoming a little more comfortable. I think that they will get along okay if this trend continues.

I will post pix in a couple of days. I'm exhausted right now. (I'm still suffering from a bout of mild food poisoning, and I don't have much energy.)

Thanks, everyone, for being so supportive!

C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S on getting your sweet Chaos. I am sure she will blend right in with Nikki in a very short period of time. :thumbsup:That's what I love about the maltese, they do so well with adjusting. Sorry to hear that you had food poisoning......that is sooooooo miserable. Hope you feel better soon and can't wait for pictures. I am looking at a retiree from another breeder and she has the fluff cut exactly as you described. But hair grows!

Such wonderful news! It's always exciting to hear that a retiree has found a forever home, this is even more heartwarming because you have reunited mother and daughter. Best wishes for a quick, easy adjustment.

YEA!! I'm so happy for you Suzan!! wow!! I can't wait to hear more and more about her (and see photos too). I guess mother and daughter didn't recognize each other? By the way, I love her nickname...it's really CUTE!

Take care of yourself! food poisoning is no joke!

Congratulations, Suzan!! I'm sure that Nikki will just love having a playmate and best friend. And Chaos, whatever you do, don't live up to your name! :HistericalSmiley:
