These little guys are Sammie and Bhoo (pronounced boo). They live at my parents house. They came to live there when one of my Mom's friends had a dog who have birth to a litter of pups and asked if we wanted one. They came over with two cute little fir balls to choose from. A caramel colored one and a black one with white "socks". They we're so cute that we couldn't pick just one, so we agreed that Sammie would be my mom and dad's dog and Bhoo would be mine. Because of where I lived, I could not have a dog, so Bhoo primarily stayed with Sammie at my parents' house and I visited every day and on weekends with the plan that one day when I became a grown up, I would take him to live with me in my own house.
Life happened and I now live in an apartment 30 minutes away. I wanted to take Bhoo with me, apartment living won't be fun for him and he is so used to being with Sammie that it would be hard on them both. So at my parents these two stay.
And while it would be fun to have all the animals play together, there just isn't enough space. So until we have a house with a yard, I will just have to make do with this strange creature:
