Rambo came into our lives at MIDWEST CAIRNFEST 2007 . . . I wasn't sure who or what we would be taking home that day (besides Mickey & Maggy), so you can imagine how happy we were to take him home.

I remembered Sara Anderson saying he should be called Romeo because he is so sweet, and he is a little lover boy! He comes to ROMEO now, or MY LITTLE CAIRN TERROR, as Joe lovingly refers to him.

The first night we had him home he lasted almost four hours in his crate, and then it started . . . this pathetic crying, howling, and a noise Joe described as a baby cow crying. We were in hysterics at 3:00 a.m., laughing, not crying . . . so I slept with him on the couch and we slept in until 7:30 a.m.

The

Same scenario the next night; guess who got to sleep on the couch with him again . . . .yep - me. But to be honest, I don't know who enjoyed it more . . . to me there is nothing like snuggling with a little puppy, and he loves to be touching you somewhere when he sleeps. He loves to tuck his nose right under your chin, or smoosh his way in behind us as we lie on the couch at night, then he goes belly-up and goes to sleep!


We made the decision to bring him into bed with us and he of course is loving it! So we ALL sleep until 7:00 or later each morning. And no accidents in the bed!


The

He is already potty-trained; with being taken out every two-to-three hours and after eating, he barely has any accidents.

He loves to chase both Mickey & Maggy around the house, doing hotlaps, around & around! My scared Maggy is coming out a little bit at a time to play with him, and that seems to be working for her. She is being a bit more social & vocal with him,too . . . it's so neat to see Romeo helping Maggy with her socialization.


The

He loves his dinner time, and Maggy's, and Mickey's. Boy, does he try to get their food too! (But with Mom the Cop around, he seldom gets it . . .).

We are working on sitting & sitting pretty . . . he will do them on occasion but usually the other two are around trying to snarf up his treats so he has to work fast to get his.


The


He takes good naps, too. In fact, we both do on some days! He plays & plays, then lies down and naps until something better comes along, like Mom wanting to play . . . the magic word! He loves to play with someone but actually plays well by himself, too.

The

Right now he is into chewing everything & anything!! Slippers, purse handles, magazines, shoelaces attached to shoes so he can chew those next! He will finish eating and come prancing in with this big ceramic bowl in his mouth! Why? Who knows . . . .

We are loving him; he follows me everywhere and cries when he can't find me . . . he brings so much joy & laughter into every room . . . I love laughing out loud - makes me feel good - and so my days are good with this little Romeo.

He is so loving & affectionate. He would let you snuggle & kiss him all day if you chose to! He loves to play with toys, and will on occasion put them back into his toy box . . . pretty cute!

It is official . . . we need to have a litter of pups at our next CairnFest. That went so well and to see them at CairnFest and then the stories of their new homes a week later is awesome. Just seeing them there waiting for new homes, I bet we could have found a few more Foster Homes during the festival.
