No, I'm not having twins, but we did add to our family this week. We now own a 2 year old yorkie/terrior mix dog named Alf. (RJ would say, "no babe, YOU own...." :) We went to the Marion County Humane Society in Knoxville on Tuesday evening this week to look at a couple little puppies, and I fell in love with our little guy. He's a perfect size for our family and has a super sweet disposition. And he's already house-trained which made the decision even easier. He also doesn't shed-another plus! He is SUPER with Miss Em and she adores him as well:)
Our only real complaint after 48 hours with him, is that at night when we put him in his kennel out in the kitchen, he whines and barks. (Separation anxiety I'm sure.) I tried covering his kennel with a blanket, but that made it worse. Emma slept through it all but RJ and I couldn't, so for the night we moved his kennel into our bedroom where he could see us, and we never heard a peep out of him! We'd rather not keep him in our room though, so tonight we've borrowed a bark collar to see if that helps or hurts. Wish us luck!:)
I am loving the beautiful fall weather we've had the past few days and we are looking forward to a nice quiet weekend♥ Tomorrow night Emma is going to stay with Nana and RJ and I have a board game night planned. Here's to the last few days of October!
