Mattie the Angel

It really is all about perspective.   Prior to Mattie we had two (RIP Bartie Boy) sweet mild mannered puggies.   Mattie seemed very naughty with her sneaky ways, slight chewing habit and playful nature.   Then came Steve..Stevie.    Mattie has a new brother.  He's a tiny (guinea pig size) 10 week old black pug who cost way too much money and truthfully...for that kind of money, he might ought to have come with at least a collar.  No more talk of cost per use or cost per pound...just know I vowed to limit  my venti non-fat vanilla latte from Starbucks  to once every now and then.     I  kind of like the name Stevie Starbucks except it makes my new baby sound like an ice skater in a Will Farrell movie.
Stevie is bad...I think that just means he is not trained, but for now he's bad and we like him.   Mattie however is an angel.   She has not eaten   him and mostly she doesn't hurt him very badly, but he does bite her tail often and when that is not available he steals her bone.   Right now his neck is in her mouth and she is flashing her white teeth at him.    For now he can't jump high so her escape is  the couch...but does that make my new baby a bully?
Here is Mattie practicing .   one of her holds.
