Meet our new joy! Baby girl puppy Lexi “Peanut” !!
Lexi says “Hello Friends!!!”. She’s probably going to be a little confused at all this blogging world, but hopefully you all can re-assure here that you’re all a group of super nice folks who will welcome her to the blog with open arms!
Meet Lexi, our itsy-bity-tiny cute-sy Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy, aka “Peanut”.
Her nickname given to her by her breeders is “Peanut” because she is the runt of the litter of 11 puppies. Lexi “Peanut” is almost nine weeks old now, but when she was born she came in at only 5 oz. Super tiny for a ridgie puppy. She barely even made it in this world, but she has the spirit and heart of a ridgeback and is now charging through life fearlessly. And with lots of love, care and attention from the great breeders, she’s now ours to take home and to love to bits and pieces!
Though Lexi is only nine pounds, she still holds up to her own. She loves to play and explore the backyard garden with curious puppy eyes. Lexi and Sierra have bonded quite quickly and their sisterhood began as soon as they started sharing toys and beds.
As you all can tell, we’re super happy to have our two-dog family back together again since we lost Dante last year. Our little family feels complete again.
So expect many puppy pictures over the next few weeks!! months!! or even years!!
hugs,
diane, todd, sierra and lexi “peanut”
Sierra and Lexi became quick friends
They can share outdoor beds for now, but we’ll have to get a new one soon!

SO precious! They look like they took to each other quite well, too (the dogs and humans and dogs). 🙂
We didn’t know Cali as a puppy, but I imagine she looked a lot like this. Adorbs. http://t.co/U26FYvcm
Hi Diane and Todd, Congratulations on the addition of Lexi “Peanut” to your family. She is absolutely beautiful! I got teary reading how she almost didn’t make it after she was born. I am certain her doggie guardian angel was looking out for her because she was meant for you. I can’t wait to see more pictures of your sweet girl {and Miss Sierra too}. Our Irish Setter Sienna sends all of you hugs and doggie kisses! Have fun!
she is soooo cute!!!! have fun with her!!!
Sooooo cute! I heart Ridgies! Can’t wait to see more photos!
Aw, yay! Puppies are one of the best things about life. So happy you guys have a new friend for Sierra and someone else to share the love with after losing Dante. She is adorable!
