Welcome Gunner!!

Because our lives were not exciting enough already, Aaron decided to add to our brood of animals. Last week, a friend and he visited the animal shelter in Thousand Palms where there are numerous cute dogs waiting to be adopted. He has been looking for and talking about getting a great playmate for Rex for about a month. So last week, he found him. A 2 month old male shephard mix. "But Lyndsey," you might ask, "Did Aaron not discuss this with you before he purchased him?" Why no, of course not!! Remember this is Aaron Hermanson you are talking about. He knows for sure that he can talk me into just about anything especially when it involves cute, fuzzy puppies. Here are a few pictures of him.




The three pictures above were taken after two hours of play with Tico. Tico, at first, was unsure of this intruder, nipping and yapping at him. Then, Tico finally realized that this puppy wanted to play. Yay!! They played chase for about an hour and a half. Rex seems very excited about Gunner. Tinkerbell just growls and snarls at him but that is to be expected.

He's a cute little sucker but I am not looking forward to the whimpering and crying that is going to happen tonight when I put him in his crate. So don't ask me what I think of him in the morning.

He is adorable. I am shocked that Tinkerbell acted that way. That dog always growled at me when I came over.

If cute could make up for Aaron not discussing it with you first, he's a great canidate! Can't wait to meet him.
