The Cutest Dog Ever!!


A few months ago we got a new puppy: Mollie. She can be disobedient at times, but is so cute it's hard to discipline her. My sister and I had been pushing for a new dog to be a friend for our other dog, and I found Mollie on Craigslist. She's a now just turned one year old mini-beagle, which means she's a mix between a normal sized beagle and a teacup beagle (didn't know there was such a thing? I didn't either) so she's smaller than other beagles.

We had seen a few other candidate Hoyer dogs in the past couple months, but the first one was a golden retriever with long hair, which my Mom didn't like, and plus the owner wanted her to go to a different family. The second dog completely ignored us and was just interested in our black lab, Oliver.

The third dog we saw was Mollie. Mollie's previous owner was one of those people who think their dog is their child, and so, when we got her, she was a bit spoiled. She came with numerous toys, two different colored collars, and a special blanket that her old owner knit for her. We had to partly potty-train her and try to train her to sleep in in the mornings.

Okay, funny story now. Mollie was having some stomach problems obviously, which led to me having to clean her and the crate off at 7 in the morning. I had tied her to the outside fence so she wouldn't run away when I sprayed her down with the hose. I started to wash her and she freaked out and ran around my legs, trapping me and the hose, which was now stuck spraying me all down my pajama pants. While I tried to get untangled I must of looked a sight, muddy and wet and mad while Mollie had her leash wrapped around me.

It's funny stories that make having a dog that would take revenge on you worthwhile.
