Our new Puppy - Meet Miggy!

We lost our last dog to cancer last July. Been looking, but never found anything we liked.
That changed Saturday!

First pic is my partner Alex, third pic is me.

...how wonderful our past companions have been. And that there will be loads of new memories to add to the collection.

I couldn't figure out what happened to Miggy's tail in the 2nd photo...it's there in all the others. Then I realized the smudge on the right was not an artifact. He's obviously an energetic wagger!

My two dogs sniffed the photos and agreed that he's a beautiful boy.

Congratulations!

He's been good so far - 6 days and only two poops in the house, both the first 24 hours - everything else has been outside.

Now the peeing is a different story...
