Introducing The Newbie - Rosy!

So I have some big news...this weekend I picked up a new addition to the family!  A 2 year-old female pug named Rosy!  I've actually been looking for another female pug for almost a year but have had bad luck and some disappointments.  The young ones go fast!  And I really wanted to get a young one so that there's a slight age gap with Sunny.  I stalked the local pug rescue's website and Petfinder every day and found Rosy at a rescue a few hours away.  I knew she was the one and a few days later I was making plans to drive over and pick her up and welcome her to my home!

Rosy is itty bitty!  And she's super fit and lean.  I'm hoping I can keep her that way but then again, look at Sunny and all her rolls.  Sigh, I'll try real hard!

Anyways, I wanted to do a quick illustration to welcome Rosy to Bah Humpug.  I find it funny how I'm such a pessimistic, cynical, grumpy person and yet I have dogs named Sunny and Rosy!  And they both came named that way!  They both had different spellings (Sunny was Sunni, and Rosy was Rosie) but still that's a weird coincidence!  I debated whether to change Rosie's name, but once I realized I could change the spelling to match Sunny's I knew it was meant to be.  They are after all the happy, bright moments of my days!
Bah Humpug(s)!

    Congratulations on your new addition!
    Rosy has certainly made herself at home. Just one more sign that it was meant to be.
    Licks,

    Congratulations on your new pug!

    I've stalked the rescue centre websites for ages. They're mostly full of staffies :/

    Awww so exciting - congrats! I already had a nearly 2 year old pug and then we got our own rescue pug named Rosie about 2 months ago. She's a little older (about 4 or 5), so we kinda did the opposite as what you did (age-wise). I also was stalking rescue sites for forever. Hope they love each other and you enjoy the extra pug cuddles! (And shedding - godspeed!!:))

    I've always said, "Pugs are like potato chips--you can't have just one!" Congrats on your new fuzzmuffin! She's adorable, and it looks like she'll be a good companion for Sunny.
