We have a new member of the family! I was leaving Jazzercise one day in late June when my friend pointed out a stray dog that was hanging out in the parking lot. We managed to get her to come to us and gave her some water. She was so grateful she started licking us all over. She was filthy, skinny and looked like she had chewed through a tie out cable that was still attached to her collar. We called animal control and they came and picked her up. I think I was already in love with her. I called to find out if anyone had adopted her and what would happen if no one came to get her. Long story short, we have a new dog. She is about 6 months old and has SO much energy. Bugsy wasn't a big fan at first. He used to sit around and stare at her like a grumpy old man, but he has since warmed up to her. She is a very smart dog, crazy for tennis balls and needs to be taken outside 3 times a day to run off her energy. I joke sometimes that if I don't take her out, she is going to eat the kids! She LOVES to chew on stuff, as any puppy does but she is better when she gets plenty of exercise!
I love her white chest and white paws and black face. She has gained weight in the last month and her coat has gotten much shinier. She was in bad shape when we got her!
Nolen and his doggy. He loves it when Jasmine kisses him.
Max loves to pet anything while he sucks his thumb. Yesterday morning he fell asleep in Jasmine's bed.
Snuggled up like old friends.
These pictures make it look like Jazz sleeps a lot...the truth is, she is either sleeping or moving so fast you can't get a good picture!

Puppy dogs make me giggle and giggle - especially when they lick my nose! Ha! My Mommy says she's glad she's in your "dance class"! We will see you next week...and I'll keep telling Mommy that we need to check your blog because we love to hear such good stories! Love, Abby (and her Mommy, Barbara Wade - ha!)
