We've Acquired a New (Furry) Family Member



















All boys need a buddy and our house had been far too quiet these past few months.  This is Annie, Nate's new pup.  She's a one year old, Whippet, Terrior, Hound, Mix (a dog of diverse heritage, Josh says, not a mut). I'm falling in love with her as we all are.  She is a wiggle worm, goof ball and also a love bug. She comes to us via Texas where she was taken in by a friend's mom.  Our friend and her husband as fate would have it, own a new, local company called Dog Gone Tired and have been raising Annie in her adolescence for the past several months. For any Arlingtonians, they do dog obedience, dog walking and even dog grooming! If you have a dog, call them!

We're so excited for all the fun times to come.  In other good news, we're still working on getting LJ's service dog.  But that is in the works and will take about another year.  More pupdates to come!  Until then, I will try to articulate the bond and love that Nate seems to have instantly cultivated with Annie.  On their neighborhood walk tonight, Nate had the leash wrapped around his waist and Annie was right up next to his side.  They were several yards ahead of us and clearly were old, good friends.
