baykinz Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 (edited) After about a year of planning and selecting a large dog breed I faced sudden opposition a few weeks ago and had to abruptly downsize my plans, and today I brought home a Tenterfield Terrier puppy. Tesla is nearly twelve weeks old. Here he is perched right up on the back of the couch: With my brother: and sleeping. On my bed in a towel nest, despite all my assurances to myself that puppy would never go on my bed: Edited September 3, 2010 by baykinz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koalathebear Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Oh!!!! So cute Look at those eyes. Can't wait to read and see more about little Tesla. What's the origin story for his name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCresties Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Tesla is adorable, I love the second pic Hope he settles in well and you have many happy years together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilli_star Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Oh he's a sweetie! And in my experience (we had 2 when I was growing up, plus there have been a few others in my family) great dogs. All the best to you both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmoothieGirl Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Simply adorable. By bringing home a Tentie you have simply downsized the body, not the capability or attitude, enjoy your time together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda K Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 did you name him after Nikola Tesla? He is so gorgeous, great choice, and I would not have been able to resist letting him on the bed either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravenau1 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Oh!!!! So cute :D Look at those eyes. Can't wait to read and see more about little Tesla. What's the origin story for his name? I am guessing after Nikola Tesla. I have a Tesla too, and a Volta ;) He's gorgeous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRADA68 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 A warning a Tentie is like a bag of chips you cannot stop at one. They are the best little dogs and so loyal. Be ready for the great doona raid they love sleeping in the bed with you. As for the top of the couch that will be his domain. They love it up high so they can see everything. He is gorgeous.

baykinz Posted August 28, 2010 Author Share Posted August 28, 2010 Thanks guys. He is indeed named for Nikola Tesla. So far nearly everybody I've told has assumed he's a girl named Tessa. Here are some pictures of Tesla with our other dog, Louie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
