We Will Always Love You Rusta ... and Welcome To The Family Charli

Happy Happy Happy ... And a tiny bit Sad ... All at the same time !

Im getting a new puppy ... She is the opposite to everything I thought I wanted, but she has already stolen my heart <3 ... At just two weeks old, she is a GIRL and she is BLACK AND WHITE!!! For someone that was convinced she wanted another just the same as Rusta, a boy and black and tan, I think this little girl will fit right in ... And in the hope that Rusta does return one day, I would like to think he wont feel like he has been replaced, and see her as a little friend for him instead.

Sad that Rusta still hasnt been found, I always knew that one day this day would come that he would run away and never be found again, I just didnt know how to stop it. I still feel guitly everyday that we didnt give him the training that he needed and deserved right from the beginning.

I have definately learnt my lesson though, this time things are going to be different. Its certainly helping that I am no longer a sleep deprived walking zombie, its a help that Felicity is no longer permanantly attatched to my hip, and we are getting her from a breeder this time ... Not a pet shop! The breeder will have her toilet trained before she gets here, fewe, although, I wont be surprised if she does have a little accident here and there. The girls have picked out a small fluffy toy of theirs each that they will sleep with for the next couple of nights and then they will be sent up to her so our scent is familiar to her when she gets here! So many little things Rusta wasnt so lucky to get :(

Her name is Charli ... With so much sentiment behind her name, I have a feeling she is going to have a few extra eyes looking over her. Charlie was my grandads name, one of the most precious people that I hold close to my heart. We also always thought that Cody was grandad reincarnated, for so many reasons, he refused to eat a scotch finger biscuit unless it was broken into 2, just like grandad did, and every new truck, or car we ever got, Cody walked around it as if he was inspecting it just like grandad would have, this was also something none of our other dogs ever did, just Cody. And for Rusta ... Nearly everytime he went missing, the people that found him that didnt know his name always said "we have nicknamed him Charlie for the night, he looked like a Charlie" ... So, thankyou to my very special four legged friends and my grandad I think I have found the most perfect name for my new little friend, Charli ... Who knows, maybe I have just found my grandma reincarnated ... Crazy?! Maybe! But no matter what, I cannot wait for my new little friend to get here and join my crazy family ...

And as for Rusta ... You ARE and ALWAYS WILL BE the BEST thing I have EVER brought home from the shops! Nothing will ever change that ... And nothing will ever change how much I miss you EVERYDAY!!! xoxo
