I am getting a new sister. She is what they call a RatCha. 1/2 Rat Terrier and 1/2 Chihuahuas. She just turned 5 weeks old. Mom has been bringing her home for short visits, that way she may have an easier time settling into our home. Mom is concerned how it is going to affect me as I am crippled up with arthritis and I can get pretty grumpy especially with little dogs jumping in my face. So far the visits have been really good. I have done very well with her, I even let her climb up on my back. Mom said it is probably cause she is so tiny, I can hardly feel her. Below is a picture of her. Also check out my online journal. It gives a daily report of the progress with our soon to be family member
