Shelley,
Congratulations on your new pet. He's a beautiful boy!! He'll enrich your lives in ways you can't begin to imagine. Do, please, take a pic of Sophie's first meeting with her new pet. That will be a precious moment.
You definitely need bandana's. I used to buy fabric and cut out my own. I got the idea from the gal who groomed my dogs--that's what she did.
Take care and I wish you many happy years with your new pet.
Michele
