Slightly Dog Obsessed

Guess what this post is on..Dogs! Surprised? I might be a scoche dog obsessed right now! Its been about ummm lets see, we moved here in ‘85, so 23 years since I’ve owned a dog. I’m entitled!

Ok Mae and I were talking about dog names tonight and we found the PERFECT one. I can’t wait to share. Mrs. Lilac and Tipp will definitely get the meaning, lets see who else will!  

First, you have to know the options we went through, because they are pretty damn funny.

Mid-last week we decided we were naming our dog a ghetto rapper name

Ludacris

Lil Kim

Snoop

Fat Joe

 

Then today after we met cutie cuterson we thought about using

Guiseppi (my sister would have cried with laughter at this one)

Arturo (think overboard…Katarina! Arturo!)

Meatpie (that was my brother)

 

Still later today we decided we were going to use some obscure Beatles reference

Gideon

Rocky

 

Nothing was right!!! Then I thought of it! I looked up Mae’s favorite book (I’m not going to tell you what it is because I want to see how many recognize the name)..and we picked the PERFECT name

 

ATTICUS FINCH

 

 

Isn’t that cute! You get a prize if you read that entire post! And another prize if you know the book! Unfortunately the prize is listening to me yammer about this dog some more!  

Tipp, I might be rivaling you for dog posts…

Mae, there you go..it’s sealed in cement..or binary code…LOVE YOU!! Thank you so much, I couldn’t ask for a better friend!

 

Cutest kid on earth..seriously

While Mae was looking up dog names just now she found the funniest cutest thing on earth..WATCH IT!! And get ready to fall off your chair laughing

It’s A Boy!

The hunt is officially over! After an exhausting day driving all over the middle Tennessee area, Mae and I have purchased our little cutey (still to be named) pup.

We drove all the way to Shelbyville, all the Tennesseans know how far that is from anywhere, to everyone else its FAR, like ends of the earth far. It was TOTALLY worth it though.

We had looked at pictures of the 4 pups left for adoption before we left the house and Mae had already decided she loved this little guy. I was on the fence as to which one I liked the most. However, as we walked in we were both sold. He was the most easy-going, loving, calm but still playful little guy in the room. You could tell he was the favorite of his foster family.

His mom is an Australian Terrier. But I’m pretty sure she is a mix of some kind. Every one of these pups looked different. Ours is clearly the cutest! And added bonus–he was only $25!!

The foster family was calling him Jack, we will not. We are now on the search for the Great Dog Name ‘08! Since we aren’t getting him until the 18th or so we have some time.

Here are some pics of our new little guy, SO SWEET!!

 

 

Damn he is CUTE!
