Not at all planned, but feels right!

About a week ago, we heard of a cute lil dog that was in need of a new home, we both just fell in love with his lil face, and when Darin called the owner to see if they had found a home for their lil' guy yet, the answer was no, he asked if they would be willing to come to our house to meet with both of us and the other dogs, and go from there. They agreed, feeling the urgency of their situation, and brought him over last Monday night. He came in a lil nervous, but warmed up very quickly to all four of us. It was pretty evident that he fit right in. We welcomed him into our home, with the agreement that the previous owners would come and visit, dog sit for us on occasion, and stay in touch. They loaded us up with all of his toys, treats, outfits, and rawhides. Instructions on what he likes, dislikes and such were given. They shared a tearful goodbye with their friend, and left. Alas, we now have a new furry four legged child in our home, meet Spots, a Chug, part Chihuahua, and part pug. Spots is very loving, caring, and oh so mild mannered. He minds his manners, and listens so very well. He was house-trained and quickly adjusted and learned to love the door that allowed him the freedom to come and go as he pleases. He is a lil cuddle bug, that loves to get in close and snuggle. His bark is not heard often, only when a guest comes in and soon as they say Hello, and he feels the threat is over, he is done. He joins Scotty, and Barkley in begging for table food, but doesn't enjoy their style of playing. He isn't really too into tug like they are, and unless it's one of his favorite toys, he refuses to participate. He does however LOVE to play fetch, and is pretty darn good at it.
He fits in well and is a great addition to our Wild Bunch. As previously stated this was in no way a planned event, as we were both insistent that 2 was plenty for us, who knows, sometimes things are just right and we think Spots is where he needs to be right now. Scotty and Barkley are enjoying the massive amount of new toys added to their already large collection, and the treats that Spots brought, let's just say, they are all in heaven! Rawhides are treasured in this household, and Spots brought quite a few with him. Enjoy a few pics of our newest addition!
