Yesterday morning’s weather was abominable.
Abominable.
Like the snowman.
Thankfully, breakfast made up for the weather.
Warm, cinnamony Snickerdoodle Oatmeal.
Dear spellchecker, “cinnamony” is too a word. Don’t you know anything??
Usually, rainy days are reserved for staying inside with a warm drink and a good book. Yesterday, however, I had somewhere special to go. October is “Adopt a Pet” month, and even though I’m not over the death of my dog (and I never will be), I know I can offer a good home to a lonely puppy.
Can you believe this guy was scheduled to be euthanized?
He looked so sad in his crate; it would’ve been impossible to not take him home. If you’re ever thinking of buying a dog, please consider adoption so that adorable pups like this one won’t be put down.
I really want to call him Batman. (Check out those ears!) But my sister informs me this would be cruel and I must give him a proper name. So far, he-who-must-not-be-named seems to be getting along with Henry, my other dog. Henry pretty much ignores the puppy.
Grumpy Henry.
he’s adorable. if i didn’t have a tiny apartment i would steal him. also, i have 2 kitties, jack and alice. they’re best buds and my babies.
Sooo stinking cute!!!! My dogs name is Henry too! But I think ur new pup looks like a Harvey or Batman!
I adopted one of my dogs! I used to volunteer at a sheltar and with one look at him and knew I couldn’t leave the sheltar without him..
Katie, first of all you look beautiful!
I want your hair, lucky to have beautiful straight hair!
Congrats on the puppy! SO CUTE!!!!!!
Aww, love you! And YOU have awesome hair, girl!
Aw, I love the new puppy & I think Batman is a perfectly acceptable name! 🙂
I adopted my pug, Stewie, from a shelter, too! We can’t figure out how anyone could ever abandon him; he’s the sweetest little guy!
Yeah, call him Bruce Wayne (always by the full name, never just Bruce 🙂 ) .
I have 2 cats: Sookie (named for the books not the True Blood series) and Ruby. Sookie is a rescue, she was found abandoned in an apartment building. She sucks her tail when she’s happy. Ruby is the kitten of an outdoor stray that gave a safe place to have her litter (8 kittens… EIGHT!!! … Ruby is the last one.) I wish I had time for a dog but I’m sometimes gone for 11 hours at a time and I just can’t do that to a dog.
He’s adorable! Call the cutie anything you want. 🙂
I don’t have any pets at the moment but I’m considering adopting an adult cat in the future. See, I’m not planning on having any kids (for many reasons, no offense to awesome mothers out there) but when I become all motherly one day, a pet sounds wonderful! And adoption is a beautiful thing to do for an animal. I’m so glad you saved your new pet!
Too cute! You have to name him batman…. That would be perfect! I have 3 pets…, dog, cat and bunny.
I love Batman! I think it’s a great name! But then, my dog is named Gig ‘Em (yes, we’re Aggies)!
I think Batman is a perfect name for your pup. Although, maybe that can be his nickname and you can call him by his alter ego…Bruce Wayne! Enjoy the puppy love.
