WE GOT A DOG!
Crazy...right? Yep! My husband and kids have been wanting a dog for years. It has been me holding us back. I never wanted a house dog. I only wanted an outside dog and we can't get one of those until we have a fence. Then, the other night, I dreamed we had a dog. A cute little house dog that could snuggle up with us and make the kids so happy. I got up Saturday morning and told the family about my dream. That did it! Everyone hopped on the computer and brought up adoption web sites. We found out that adopting a dog is not very cheap. So, we took a ride down to the County Shelter to check out their selection (because it's cheap!). We saw one that we liked, but it already had 2 holds on it. So, we left and everyone was sad. When we got home, we checked out Rancho Coastal Humane Society's web site, We fell in love with a picture of a Jack Russell Terrier named Toby. After church today, we drove on down and met the little guy! We fell in love! He's perfect for our family!
He already had a name, so we added a little of our own personal touch to it..just to make it more special. We are very excited that Toby Wan Kenobi picked us as his new family!
(BTW-He's a pure breed....he's got hair instead of fur...he's hypo allergenic, so if you're allergic to dogs, he shouldn't bother you!)
He's also house trained and can sit, shake hands and point! We Love Him!
