We got a PUPPY!

We've been looking for a pup for a while now and we finally decided to take the leap and adopt a stray from the Regina Humane Society (RHS).

She's a 7 month old mutt. She's a good mix of black Lab, Border Collie and German Shep. She's about the size of a lab, she's got a lab's coat too, maybe a bit longer like the German and she's got some coloring like a Collie on her chest and paws. She's got the face of a German with the cute ears and all and she's got the butt of a German too. She's got the energy of all 3 it seems so we're in for quite a ride! She is just adorable and a bit shy. We barked maybe twice while we were there and she was SO cuddly. She just sat on J's lap and snuggled her face in his neck and stayed there. She is just adorable! (Prepare for long posts about how great our dog is, cooing and tons of photos!)

We bought some supplies on Saturday and we are just way to excited to bring her home on Thursday. RHS agreed to keep her until Thursday and bring her to the Vet for us so she can get the routine check, spayed/neutered (I always forget which is which!) and all her shots because she's still young and we have no history on her so we didn't want to take any chances!

We are going to get her on Thursday after work and then starts the long process of introducing her to Jack and training her! The RHS told us she was good for #2ing outside... but she did have some #1 accidents in her kennel! I'm sure the stress and the UBER-BARKING-MONSTER that is in the kennel right next to her doesn't help!

I'll post pictures as soon as I have them! :) Now, off I go... puppy-proofing the house! *squee*
