I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to put this sort of topic. I'm not sure if there is a designated thread for forum member's pets...

This Easter I got a new puppy. She's a salt and pepper miniature schnauzer. Her full name is Tomo Kioko Mori, but I just call her Tomo. She is very sweet and I love her like my own baby. I had adopted her from a breeder 2 hours away from our home out in the country. Her mom is silver and her dad is black, and she has two brothers one salt and pepper, one black. When I first saw her at the breeder's home, she greeted me excitedly and followed me everywhere. I knew she was the one for me, I fell in love with her immediately. When I brought her home for Easter, at first she was very timid and scared, but it's the second day now and she's starting to come out of her shell and be her old self (running all over the place, exploring, being happy and playful). We have an older silver miniature schnauzer named Sylvia. I hope they get along in the future. Right now Sylvia is acting like an alpha female (like she always does) and just watches the puppy play curiously. It's been very hard these past couple of nights because we are crate training her and at night Tomo gets very scared and cries. I felt pretty depressed this morning because I left Tomo in my mom's care while I'm at school, and I really miss her. She's been really good about going outside to use the bathroom though. She'll walk up to the outside door and I'll take her outside and she goes. She's pretty young to be learning potty training, but I figure it's best to start as early as possible. Here are some pictures of her:

Cute!  Schnauzers are awesome.  They're like big dogs in little-dog packages. :D  We have a white miniature, that wound up being closer to a standard, and a black miniature.

So cute!!

I have a pitt ^_^ His name is Romeo cuz he's a lover, not a fighter.
Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias as it fell was Oh no, not again. Many people have speculated that if we knew exactly why the bowl of petunias had thought that we would know a lot more about the nature of the Universe than we do now.

Any time i think of Schnauzers i think of that Fairly Odd Parents episode xD. I myself have a big stupid yellow thing that loves you no matter what.
"But are you going to kill her off?"
"It's not your decision. I love the character, she stays."
"Yeah, well the only thing love's done is put you in this position; I say kill her off!"
"Yeah, but you say a lot of things... and how does that work? You're a bicycle" Claudio Sanchez, In the song Ten Speed of Gods Blood and Burial, which is basically about a crazy old writer talking to his bicycle.
