Cleo - Chloe?

Our new puppy! Cleo - Chloe? My granddaughter named her, but kept calling her both names. I like the sound of  Chloe better, but Cleo means the Father's Glory. I'm confused. Never let a 5 y/o name a dog. I'm actually in favor of Rainbow for a white dog, but that's been vetoed by everyone. :(


My daughter just happened to be looking for a Great Pyrenees when Molly died and ran across a great deal on purebred, unpapered pups. We had her pick one up for us when she went to pick up hers. Gave us an awesome excuse to take a day off in the middle of market season to go see her new house and visit with her family! We hadn't seen them since the middle of June. Now if we could just manage to see the East Coast branch!

Cleo - Chloe did very well on the ride home. She got rather anxious when we drove into a heavy storm, but as soon as it subsided, she settled down. We didn't get home until 9:30 and since it was raining, we decided she'd have to come in for the night. 

Lady (our other Great Pyrenees) was so excited to see her! She was following us around and even wanted to come inside with her. No way! Cleo-Chloe will be an outside dog very soon. I'm not having a houseful of gigantic dogs in this little trailer. Blue on the other hand isn't terribly impressed. He'll just have to get used to her!

Cleo-Chloe thinks the dog in the mirror is a playmate. It is funny, but has to be discouraged. A sliding mirror door is just to fragile to wrestle doggy style with. 

We will see how she does tomorrow with the chickens. 

I've been wanting to have a side-kick type of dog for quite a while. Since Cleo-Chloe rides so well, I think she will be come my personal companion. 


God Bless You All!

Love, Grama Sue
