MIXED feelings.

our baby Maverick went to the vet today because i noticed a small knot underneath her skin by her shoulder. The doting Mommy I am, OF COURSE i was worried.

maverick's vet was out for summer vacation and rather than wait til they got back, darling friend suggested we take it to my twinkie's vetenarian.

she had her appt at 9:30 and LUCKILY the vet said it was probably from her last shot, because it was the big shot. BUT! she said that Maverick probably wasn't a bichon frise, but a maltese. I was shocked because i had my suspicions, even though she had her AKC registered bichon papers.

She looks different than Lola, but I just figured it was characteristic. That Maverick's straight hair (bichons have curlier fluffy coats, like Lola's) was just her puppy hair. I mean look at Lola when she was little:

The place i got her from doesn't even sell Maltese's, just Bichons and Haveneses. It's not a big deal cos i love her just the same, but I was still shocked. (Maltese's are just as cute, look at Nicole's from La Mia Vita. Massimo is ADORABLE, like his "mommy")

Max didn't understand why i was so shocked (i loved lola's curly hair!), but he texted me, "i like mutts and mixes (mexipina) {referring to my nationality} love u."

how cute is that?

i suppose if i'm a mix, so is my puppy baby.
