On Saturday we went to Atlanta Pet Rescue 
to see a poodle-bischon cross they had... and this little puppy stole our hearts. He was SO sweet with the boys - gentle and affectionate, following them around the pen and licking their faces.
to see a poodle-bischon cross they had... and this little puppy stole our hearts. He was SO sweet with the boys - gentle and affectionate, following them around the pen and licking their faces. His name was Diesel but we quickly renamed him Shadow because he follows everyone around the house like a Shadow. He is between 4 and 6 months old and he is probably a Schnoodle. He came home matted and with kennel cough. He is all skin and bones - he is 13 inches tall but weighs only 9.5 pounds.
A bath, antibiotics, and a good night's sleep in a new home perked him up and today he tore around after the boys. They played with him in the backyard, watched TV on the couch with him, and took him for walks. Ben sat on the couch and read him books until he fell asleep.
He is unbelievable cute and affectionate. He is a little skittish but Nikki's energy 
and enthusiasm don't intimidate him. He loves to cuddle and just be part of whatever we are doing.

Okay... I know everyone thinks we are crazy for taking on one more thing... but what is one more responsibility when he brings so much love to the house?!
