Hi Bojangles,
Thank you for your kind words. Actually she is a Havanese. A little Spanish dog and the national dog from Cuba. Nina is small for her breed and indeed because of her coloring, Havanese can be any color or combination, and size looks a bit Maltese. That is one of the main reasons I was drawn to her. She is a lot of fun and so soft. I love the horse in your avatar. This is our first little dog. I loved our large dogs but I wanted a small indoor lap dog and this one fit because she is hypoallergenic or better her hair is. They also have a little more of a larger dog personality and are a little less nippy then some breeds.

Joe, you are just going through a lot right now - with moving and all! Take it a day at a time . . . . . do what you can . . . . . , and when you get moved get a pet! It has been proven that a pet can extend and emotionally improve the lives/health of their owners!
When I am down or discouraged I bury my nose in a horse or a dog!
