Our new addition!!

I'm SO excited!! Ok, I have to get a hold of myself. We are getting a puppy!!!! He's so cute!!!

Let me start at the beginning. Last week we went to the Humane Society after work. They are only open until 5:30 so we didn't get to see much. Saturday we went back and talked to some people about what we were looking for. Unfortunately, there was only one dog who is good with cats so we were basically thinking that we would get a puppy so we can train it to behave around Caesar and so that it would be "our" dog. They told us there was a great puppy at Petsmart so we went there to see him and when we got there he was en-route back to the shelter.

So we went BACK to the shelter to meet "Rocky." Turns out he was incredible. Even Dave, who was/is skeptical about having a dog, loved Rocky. He's a german shepard/husky mix, and he's great. BUT someone had already put in an application on him while he was at the pet store-- so we were second if they decided they didn't want him. In the meantime, there was a litter of pups that would be ready later this week that we would get first dibs on. So we went home and stewed on Rocky for a while. We got a call about 5:30 that he had been picked up by the first person who applied to get him. So we were bummed but still hopeful for the puppies later this week.

Well, this morning I got a call from Sarah at the Humane Society asking if we really liked Rocky. I said we did and that I appreciated them putting us in line for the puppies. We she told me that he was returned!?! Can you believe it?!?! This puppy was SO well behaved, I can't believe anyone would return him. Turns out the people who took him home just weren't ready and they really wanted a female dog. Well poop on them, we got our dog!! We go to pick him up after work tonight. I'm so excited!

Yay!! We're getting a fur-baby!!
