Welcome to the family Dexter!

I have been wanting another dog ever since we moved to New Mexico. The reason being that our dog Zoey has been very depressed since we brought her here. She doesn't have any friends here. In Utah she played with Ethan's parents dogs Kanye and Coco every week. She also played with our upstairs neighbors dog Ellie all the time. She loved her life in Utah but since we came to Albuquerque she has been lonely and depressed. She even gained 3 pounds! She was eating her feelings! I gave Ethan lots of not so subtle hints about getting a new dog. He came through on Valentines with a little Westie (the Caesar dog). We named him Dexter. He's a little beast but we love him and Zoey is happy and has her energy back! He's adjusted to his new environment very quickly, in fact he never missed a beat. He's a great addition to our family! Hope the potty training goes quickly! Here are some pics of the little guy!

I am sooooooooooo jealous! I have been wanting a dog for so long, I can barely take it! I wish we could have a dog but our landlord wont allow us.

That has to be one of the best Valentine's day ever! Tell Ethan good job! Very impressive!

You are so funny I loved this post! I love that dog on the commercial. I am glad that Zoe isnt depressed anymore! How are things going for you? How is school for you and for Ethan? Keep in touch!

yay!!! I'm so excited that you guys got a new one, we miss Zo so much! Ellie is so bored constantly. Wish you were still here. We're hoping to be moving out of this house next week too. I'm so excited, we have outgrown this place a long time ago and I was getting so stressed about where I was going to put everything especially when this baby comes. Then we've been having ridiculous problems with the heater. We've been without heat the entire month of February and I'm SOOO sick of it! Ryan is dragging his feet with fixing it and finally it came down to a contractor telling him that he needed a new unit and he doesn't want to pay for it so who knows when it will get fixed. That was kinda the last straw and Cody finally told me to start looking! It has a HUGE fenced in backyard so Ellie should be happy about that one. Wish you guys still lived here.
