Biscuit

Well, boys, we finally gave in and got us a pet. We had been waiting on getting you a dog until we thought that you were old enough to understand that having a pet is a responsibility to be shared by the whole family...not just mommy. A few weeks ago, we doggie-sat for Mrs Wyndie. We kept Bob while they went out of town. Bob is a great dog!! After Bob left and went back home, I started looking for us a doggie sort of like him. I wanted to get us a dog that was already house trained and one that would not shed a bunch of hair. I found us 3 year old Shih Tzu online and we went and picked him up this past weekend. His name is Biscuit, and so far he is a pretty good dog. When we got him, he was full of long, shaggy hair. The first thing we did was take him and get him cut and cleaned up. He was not used to getting a lot of attention, so he is still getting used to us. We are trying to teach him to play with balls and toys, but he hasn't really caught on yet....but if he hangs around here,then he's gonna have to step it up. He is mommy's shadow..he follows here everywhere. He stays underneath us when we are at the dinner table. He already knows that Cody is the one that makes the biggest messes, so he stays underneath him the most. I hope that we can get lots of love and enjoyment out of Biscuit. It has been a really long time since I've had a pet, but when I was a little boy, I enjoyed having a family dog. I love you, boys!!
