Hello there, Christmas came early for our family! This is Noelle, and she is a long hair dachshund. She was born in August and adopted in mid October from a family that breeds dogs in Rancho Cucamonga, California. She is now thirteen weeks old. Noelle lives with me at my mom's house with my younger sister who has Down syndrome in Orange County, California.
She is a lot of work! Every two hours I have to take her outside to potty and I can only bath her one time a month. It took me exactly three days to figure out her communication. Noelle doesnt like to be dirty and that is one of my favorite things that I love about her! When it is night time she would cry in her crate to let me know she needed to go outside. Now she sleeps with me and I have figured out a schedule and routine for her.
When she is outside in the back yard and I am not looking, she sometimes licks the water off the leaves and eats them. I am trying to work with her on that. This weekend will be her first time joining puppy playtime at Petco, just to get her socializing. Being a parent to Noelle has been so nice but hard. Nice to feel needed and wanted, but hard because there are times when I would just have gives her a bath and she would accidentally step in her poo which I would have to clean up her paws again. I am so grateful for her though, everyone just loves her in our home. She doesn't bark much, but when she does it is mainly at the mail man or gardener in the mornings. Noelle is sweet, playful, and funny. I am excited to see what the future will be like.
