A sweet, faithful, loving friend...
...can also be a tremendous pain in the, um, household.
Smiley's former owners ran into Caro again last week and asked if we were SURE we didn't want her. They'd already given her away once, and the people brought her back the next day.
So we caved. Sunday Mike went down to say, yes, thanks, and seal the deal.
Yesterday I bought her a pretty red collar with rhinestones. Yesterday SHE peed on the floor and my bed, once each. Today, she chewed up a dishtowel and my purse.
Caro thinks we should change her name, because Smiley sounds like a minor character on The Sopranos. Also because Mike has the habit of pronouncing it "Smelly".
I am leaning towards Nightmare Death Mutant Hooligan Pup from Hell.
Except she really IS a Smiley McFriendlypants. Even if the cats don't buy it.
