Seven 9s and 10s

High-res GPOYW That’s Jay, the Border/Lab puppy… that I will not be adopting. :-( Heather and I spent an hour with him this evening and he’s gorgeous and well-behaved (for an 8-month old) and playful and he seemed to like us both… but the timing is just not right. I just don’t feel comfortable adopting a dog right now, particularly a puppy, knowing I would be entirely responsible for  raising it, at least until Heather moves to Rochester. I only hope that he ends up being adopted by a great family that can give him the love, time, and attention that he deserves. Unfortunately, that’s not something I can do alone at this point. I just need to remind myself that there are plenty of dogs out there who are in need of adoption. Priority 1 is getting Heather to Rochester. Once that is settled we can move on to building a life together that includes a great dog of our own.

A special wish of love and secret luck later this week from Chuckie for Steve.

This video makes me happy.

A special Chuckie moment for Steve.

What a spaz! I love him. And Duffy has the look of someone who used to be embarrassed by Chuckie’s antics but has since learned to just ignore them, as if to say “Get a load of that trainwreck. I know, right?”

This was a very nice way to wake up. Thank you, Cary!

Because Chuckie’s skills lie elsewhere.

I needed a good dose of my favorite internet pooch this morning. I can always count on Cary and Chuckie to deliver the goods.
