New Addition!

I don't normally write personal blog posts, but I feel compelled to share with you the latest addition to our family.  His name is "Copper", and he is a 12-year old Lab/Hound mix.  Copper was brought to the local animal shelter because the owners got a new puppy, and couldn't handle Copper any more.  My wife and I saw him on the shelter's website, and his eyes captivated our hearts!  This dog is just as sweet as he looks, and he gets along well with our elderly female Doberman and the 2 cats. 

2 days after we brought him home, Copper developed some type of undiagnosed stomach illness.  He was quite ill for 2-3 days, but is beginning to regain is strength thanks to Dr. PAWS animal clinic.  We hope to give Copper a good life, and we are showering him with affection.

What amazes me though is just how cold-hearted people can be to animals.  Disposing of a dog that has been with you for 12 years is heartless and cruel.  There should be no asshole rule for animal owners!
