Ziva

Well, she has arrived. Ziva, named for the trained assassin on NCIS, came home today. I personally had some more (what I thought) gentler names...like Bronwyn or Lake picked out but was out voted 3 to 1. The boys were adamant she have a cool name. Ok, Ziva is pretty cool.

Ziva is a Belgium Malinois. Originally used as herding dogs they are now used as personal protection dogs. We hope she chooses to do both. They do make good family dogs but need constant supervision and socialization. I did a huge amount of research before committing to this dog. They are highly intelligent and extremely active. Active is fine, so are we. Highly intelligent....hmmm. I may be in trouble.
