We Got A Dog!

It's crazy, we had been talking about getting a dog but not really serious about it.  But my husband's brother met someone who had a 7 month old lab and boxer mix, who is now living in his car and is not able to afford feeding the dog.  Really sad.  So today they went to go check out this dog and actually took him home!  And when I came back from work, this guy was sitting there looking at me:

His name is Whiskey!  I think that's a cute name for a dog.  You can't really tell from these pictures but he is pretty skinny from the lack of food.  You can see his rib cage under his skin.  Well, he's got a good home now and we are feeding him!

I think he's totally cute, and he is such a cuddler.  He is quiet, he can play with himself (he throws up his toy bone and catches it), and is house trained.  So hopefully this won't be too hard!  I hope to be able to take him out as my running partner!  It's always been my dream to have a running dog, because I don't really like running with other people (don't like talking or pacing others while running) and I get bored running outside by myself which is why I never really do it.  

I'm not too excited with the prospect of picking up poop though.  And he keeps humping everything since he hasn't been neutered.  But this should be a fun adventure!
