TheodoreViews: 242

All of these were taken with my cell so the quality isn’t the best. :( I need a decent camera.

He is a Toy Fox Terrier and shouldn’t get bigger then 6lbs. So once he grows he’ll be 10inches tall and his ears will perk straight up.

AKC registered soon, 1 year health guarantee, shots, wormed, heart guard. This lady really takes care of her litters. He’s due back this coming week for a second set of shots and I’ll set up and appointment so he can get fixed. Photobucket
On the way home he was panicking because we left his brother and sisters. He was crying and it made me sad but once we got to Petco he seems perfectly fine.

The meeting of my two furry loves Joey and Theodore get along so well. Joey has not rough housed but plays with him nicely and doesn’t seem jealous. This is a huge relief for me.

Photobucket
Trying to get him to use the outside for a potty rather then the carpet. 0/3 now >_< this is going to be fun. He was laying down at the top of the front hill occasionally tumbling down hehe.

Boy will be boys, him tearing out a clumps of grass and weeds.

LOOK at his face he is so mellow and good natured compared to his brother who nipped a lot and was just a ball of endless energy. I chose the right one.

Stealing Joey’s chew stick while he was out on a walk. Sneaky sneaky Theodore.

I adore him and I was exhausted from lack of sleep so I took him and myself up to my mom’s room to sleep in the air conditioning. He snuggled up next to me and slept for about 2 hours straight. What a good boy.

He’s lovely. I adore animals. He has the sweetest face, you’re both lucky. ;)

He is the cutest little baby boy. What did you finally name him? I saw all your options on your last post so now that you have him please introduce us to your new boy. What fun and just the perfect company and size. He kind of reminds me of a name like: Rufus, Reggie, Kerbie, Bulleye or something like that….. good luck on your new pet grooming and adustment.

Oh, Theodore is just adorable. He will be your best friend and will give you unconditional love. I am sure you already know that because of Joey.
Give both of a big hug and kiss from me.
Hugs,
Joyce

Hi gal Love that Dog and love you too,

ok, he is adorable….enjoy!

Those eyes will get you every time! He is so cute. They have lots of boy dog clothes too, so you can still dress him up. lol Congrats!

He is so damn cute! And his name fits perfectly. Good luck with the potty training, puppies are so stubborn and cute at the same time it is hard to discipline them.

He’s adorable. Congrats!
