fireplace snuggles and puppies |
At the beginning of November, we brought home this sweet, giant galumph
of a boy for a trial and a few weeks later, decided he was a total keeper.

love this sweet face |
We’ve been looking for a second dog for some time now- in July, we
fostered/trialed Chewy for
almost a month before heartrendingly deciding we weren’t a good match for his
needs (tremendous separation anxiety and dog aggression. We had been through
horrifying dog aggressive behavior with our previous boy, Rocky,
for over ten years and honestly, just weren’t up for it again). We took a few
months off of thinking about a second furry addition to the house, but upon
seeing Captain’s face, had to inquire about this boy.
He’s like a cross between a kangaroo and a giraffe and Gumby; funny and
clumsy and endearing with way too many transitions in his life. Sadly, between
a back injury for me at work and a new health issue/leg injury for him (that
cropped up shortly after bringing him home) we’ve done next to no hiking. I’m
yearning for snow and he loooooves the outdoors. And playing with Pepper, which
he can’t do right now due to the fragility of his leg.

amazing to see Pepper actually snuggle- bossy little wench that she is |

one of our only hikes in November- Gillette Lake |

comfortable |
So let’s say we are both (all of us, actually) stir crazy. But getting lots of naps and long
walks around the neighborhood, dreaming about chasing squirrels and eating snowcones.

napping with my dogs is a favorite pastime |
