My Newest Niece



I would like to introduce you all to my newest niece. This is Chesapeake, but she goes by Chessie. She belongs to my roommate for the summer and next year, who will go by "The Garbage Disposal" (because she eats like that). Garbage Disposal found her at her crew race over the weekend and decided to give her a home. This is also where her name comes from. Chesapeake was named after the boat house she was found at, and it stuck. She is about five months old and definitely a mut. She went to the vet yesterday and has internal parasites and was running a fever, but she's on an antibiotic that should clear it up. She's not a barker, and she's doing REALLY well with her training. She already is consuming my time seeing as how the last two days instead of going home after class and being productive, I go over to The Garbage Disposal's and play with Chessie for a couple hours. She's still really thin because she was malnourished, but hopefully she'll fatten up a little. But seriously, how cute is she??

Thank God I already have an alias because I'd hate to see what you'd come up with for me.

Chessie's a cutie, but I still think she's going to be huge!

She'll probably seem a lot cuter after the internal parasites are gone!!
