Life with Archie So Far
Cuteness overload here. Archie is adjusting very well to living with us. His breeder is from Nevada and lives in an area where Parvo is a terrible problem, so he had been kept inside for the four months of his life until we got him. He had been trained to use a cat litter box,…

Introducing…..Archie
We have a new puppy! This is Archie, a Wire Hair Terrier. He is four months old and is the sweetest little guy ever. I hope I don't jinx things by saying he seems to have a rather mellow personality! He has yet to bark or make a sound of any kind. We are taking…
