Again, sorry you've had to wait so long for pictures. Life is busy in the -- household
. I've attached some recent ones. Mouse is a big face licker. If you're lying down at all it's her cue to come slather your face with kisses (as you'll see!). [note: picture of Mouse licking one of the kids' faces - very cute but I won't include it for privacy reasons.]A few other Mouse "ism's":

[This family was such a perfect fit for Mouse. I love their updates. I think all the puppies ended up in their perfect homes. :-)]

She's still such a sweetheart! lol at the "you can't ignore me" looks. I think you did a great job in placing all the pups with the right families.
