Puppy!

As you know from a previous post as well as other means we no longer have Ishie and Zara. Add to that our big male cat Grumpy. He has been missing a week now. Despite several trips to the shelter and search of the neighborhood he seems to be gone. I still have hope that he will show up...Anyway on one of the trips looking for the cat I saw puppies. They were 7 week old beagle mixes. I fell in love with one, asked Paul (who said no) and moved on. Then this afternoon Paul asked me what kind of pup he was. I told him and we went to look. My pup wasn't there but his brother was. We ended up bringing him home. He is a very cute little guy, brown and white with a white tipped tail. The white parts have brown ticking on them. We named him Ian, in honor of our beloved Ishie. So far he is doing great! He loves Jade and Zev. Jade is indifferent to him and Zev thinks he is a playtoy. We may regret bringing him home becuase of puppy frustration and I am sure that there will at least one post on the horrors of having a puppy in the house, but in the end it will be worth it.
