This is her first puppy photo. Isn't she just too cute? That's why we call her "TC" Her official name is Too Cute. We found TC at a local rescue shelter when she was just six weeks old. She was a skinny puff of fur, weighing only 2.7 pounds. Once my daughter held her, she just kept saying "Oh mommy! She's just too cute!" and it stuck. TC and her 5 litter mates had been dropped of at the shelter by a person who had dropped off many litters before. He refused to neuter his dogs and they produced litter after litter of unwanted puppies. After two weeks of love and affection, TC doubled her weight and quadrupled her energy. Today, five years later TC is a beloved member of my family, and a source of unconditional love, and unflinching loyalty. She's the "biggest" little dog I know. with a joy and intelligence that is a delight to all of us. TC is half Cocker Spaniel and half Wire hair Terrier. We couldn't have designed a better dog if we'd tried. She's the perfect size for our home, and has the best of both breeds' personalities. She'll laze with you as you watch TV or work at the computer, or she'll be ready to play as soon as you suggest it. She loves to run like the wind, or ride in the car and she'll happily chase a flashlight beam for hours. I don't think I can remember what my life was like before TC came to live with us, but with her as a member of the family.. life is good.
