Puppy Puppy

I have a new puppy!  Her name is Lucy.  Lucy is a sweet little Minature Schnauzer who is 10 weeks old.  I've had pets most of my life but after loosing my last indoor cat, Teddy, I was so heartbroken and lonely.  My husband's work schedule takes him away a lot and during those times our home gets really really quiet.

We purchased Lucy from Cajunlands Miniature Schnauzers in Raceland, Louisiana a couple of weeks ago.  She is the sweetest puppy, very smart and very playful.  My days have been filled with Lucy, Lucy, Puppy, Puppy.  Need I say more.  I haven't exactly had time to paint but we are getting settled in.  I know it will get easier, but for now my total devotion has been to her.  She is very smart and a fast learner.


Lucy at 2 weeks old.














Lucy at 4 weeks.

















Lucy at 8 weeks.  Her color is getting lighter.  She will probably be all salt and pepper like her mom.

8 weeks














Ten weeks......watching one of my outside cats, who she is desperately trying to make friends with, have breakfast.  They visit through the screen.













Sleeping after her morning walk.  She plays hard and sleeps even harder.

    1. She is doing great Julie! I am painting but not plein air which I really love to do during this time of the year. The vet suggested I not take her to public places until she has had all of her shots which will be mid June. I will probably paint in my studio until the fall, but who knows, we may hit some early mornings during the summer months. What I haven't been doing much of is blogging but I plan on working on that.
