Meet Petunia

Miss Petunia was born on April 14, 2011 to Eric and Joyous. She is 8 weeks old and weighs a mere 12lbs, making her, by far, the smallest puppy I have raised.

I made it no secret that I didn't want a puppy named Petunia, but the entire way down to Denver I just knew her name would be Petunia. It's kinda weird that I knew it, but I did! When I was handed her is "Lion King" fashion off the truck and told her name I was in shock.
The puppy truck is the main focus of the picture. Joe is hold Petunia high up in the air and laughing. I am standing outside the truck door with my head thrown back, laughing


But I immediately fell in love with my little whiteish grey girl.
I am holding Petunia in from of the puppy truck. She is looking up at me and I'm looking down at her. Our noses are touching.

Right after coming off the truck, Petunia met her big sisters, Betsy and Jorinda.

We also got to meet her sister Precious.

Precious had eye surgery for entropion while at GDB and poor Petunia is scheduled to have surgery on Monday.

See how drippy her eyes are :(


That's all for now. My puppy is calling me!

Awe, she is so cute and she is half sister to my girl Paris!! Paris had to have three eye surgerys to correct entropism by the time she was 16 weeks old. We haven't had a single problem since. I hope her surgery goes well! If Petunia is even a tiny bit like Paris you are going to have one phenomenal puppy. I love my Paris!
