It's true.

Yes, it's true, for anyone who doesn't believe it, or hasn't heard yet, we got a dog! Believe it or not, we did. He's name is Pugsly and he is about a year or two old. He is part pug and part pekingese. He's a rescue dog and he is so lovable. He's shy and scared of everything, including his shadow, which I found out yesterday. :) He LOVES being held and petted and is perfectly content watching the cars go by (as long as you are petting him while he's watching them). We sat on the front porch for a half hour today while he just watched the cars. Below I've posted a few pictures of him and I'm hoping to get a video of what he does when we first come home or wake up. It's so adorable.

Close up on his face. This is from when I went to visit him the first time, without Nate. I wanted to take a bunch of pictures of him, but he wasn't cooperating. He was just too scared of people.

Pugsly and his new family

Pausing while running around in the back yard. He loves the tall grass and to run, jump and sniff through it all. He's discovering that he likes to chase squirrels but the deer in the woods next door don't phase him at all. Notice the curve in the tail? I think that's the pug coming out of him. It's not always like that, but when he's in this position, it's obvious. He also has cute little wrinkles on his face sometimes that are characteristic of pugs.
