I got my very first own puppy 12 days ago, and she’s now forever mine❤️

Her name is Meiko, and she’s so smart and lovely! Of course she’s also playfully mischievous, but I encourage her feistiness as long as she’s safe and secure, both physically and emotionally.

It took her longer this time, but for the fourth year in a row, this diva stops by (actually climbs up) to get all she can eat. We actually love you, Criminality.
