The Otte's

Well what to do after a Make a Wish trip, where we are spoiled rotten?

Get a dog!

We are going to train her to be a therapy dog to help Quinn.

Nothing crazy, but give her attention and love.

When we introduced them, Quinn said she did not like the dog, and the dog tried to eat Quinn's button.  So we are working from not loving each other, but they are both changing their minds quickly.  

Isaiah and Denali are also excited and in charge of both dogs.  We are taking all three kids to some training classes with the dog.

We are still coming up with a name.  Isaiah wants Butterfly, as that is what this type of dog use to be called because of it's big ears.

Denali likes Buttercup, and Quinn gets to choose, and she still is undecided.

 She is a Papillon, a smart toy breed that will be able to learn how to be a therapy dog.  We are excited about this adventure, knowing it is going to take time, but having her lay on Quinn's chest and  have Quinn start petting her is a great start.

 Blue is also doing a great job accepting the puppy.

 It's hard work having her sleep on me.

So here she is Butter something, and she is fitting into our crazy wonderful household just fine.
