A day in...

A new brother!

Mom surprised me today with the news that I was getting a little brother! She saw one listed in one of our local rescues and she contacted them. When they contacted her today she was able to go and meet him in the vets office where he is staying. He is a westie, like me and mom says he's the spittin' image of me (of course we all look so much alike). He is only 8 months old and was picked up by the local animal control after being hit by a car. They left the poor thing sitting in one of those awful cages without giving him any medical treatment! He had a dislocated hip from being hit, and he was infested with fleas. Then the nice people from a local rescue organization came along and got him out of that awful place. They got him the care he needed and now they are giving him to us. WooHoo! I'm going with mom Thursday to pick him up from the vets, and I do have to admit to knowing that I'm going to be a little jealous at first, but it will be great. Mom says we have to drop him off at the groomers before we can even bring him home though. Poor pup is such a mess. Neither mom nor the rescue people can understand why anyone would buy a dog and then just throw it away. So very sad, but now it's a happy ending for all of us.
