Meet my new babies!
Otherwise known as the reason my yuletide fic isn't done yet:
(Lol I had to steal this pic from the shelter website. I could not get the two of them to sit still at the same time, at all, especially not anywhere near each other.)
It's been three years since my best friend of sixteen years died -- it was time. But when I went to the shelter, I never thought I would be coming home the next day with not one but TWO cocker spaniels. I wanted what I know: a cross-breed, a biggish athletic dog preferably. Heeee. Two little fluff balls later looking at me with big droopy eyes and needing a home so bad...
Hi livejournals, this is Bella and Marlowe, my new babies.
They are three and five years old, respectively. I guess people mostly want one dog (i.e. like me) and also want younger dogs, since these two had been at the shelter for a while. Their previous owners, who gave them up (WTFWTFWTFIHATEPEOPLE), called them 'Bella' and 'Mellow', which, I could live with Bella. Even if it is probably a Twilight reference. 'Mellow' I thought a bit dumb, so I've changed it to something similar. He answers to Marlowe already (sort of) which is good. I didn't want to give the poor old dear an identity crisis.
Hi, I'm Bella!
I don't like to sit still for long.
Life is hard and alll I want to do is lie down and take a nap jeez.
P.S. BALLOMNOMNOM
Looking angelic. (Or me having lighting issues whatev.)
They love riding in the car. And getting wet and muddy. And belly rubs. They howl like giant freaks their wolfy cousins when they hear certain noises e.g. an ambulance siren. Bella is clingy, and Marlowe would sleep all day in between eating toys. Both still a bit jumpy and excitable. But over all settling in quite well all things considered.
In conclusion: BABIES HOW CUTE ARE THEY.
