Shortly after my last post, Russ and I decided we needed a dog. We got insider information on new puppy arrivals at the local SPCA. Due to such amazing tips, we got to preview some of the animals before they got to the SPCA!
We arrived at the farm on a not-too-cold Saturday in February. We didn't really Love any of the pups until we got to the stall of a shades-of-brown mutt. Smokey sniffed us out, chased us down and herded us back into the car before we could reconsider THIS (there are more than a handful in my past) spontaneous and life changing decision. While signing the adoption paperwork we learned that he was a 7 month old Australian Shepherd/Husky mix.
He loves the snow and we love him.
We have a lot of catching up to do and this is not the best picture of Mr. Smokes (as I've started calling him) but I guarantee there will be more. I just wish I had taken a photo of him while he was in the back of the police squad car feeling sorry for himself! It's been a wild 5 months since February.
