Sometimes You Just Can't Resist

I am a sucker for animals. I know I can't even go look at them. It's dangerous. I may come home with an extra pet. Or two. This time, though, we'd been considering getting another dog. A smaller dog. A dog the kids can handle easier than our giant bear. It needed to be small, non shedding, and female. And we found her. Don't feel sorry for her, she loves every minute of this. Her breeder had a 2 year old and a 3 year old in the house. No wonder she showed a particular attraction to our 2 (almost 3) year old. Needless to say, she fits in quite nicely. She's a shi-poo. So cute and smart. She's already learned to fake 'doing her business' so she can get back inside.
So meet Emerson. Emerson the shi-poo. Or shi-tzpoo - either way.

Thankfully, I haven't convinced David that we need a hamster, and a bunny rabbit, and a love bird, and a turtle.... You get the point.

I think that is the very reason I wanted to add a small dog to our repertoire, cause I've had my fill of our beast lately. Ha! Come over for some cuddles!
