Yes we adopted again already, but this time she’s a dog! My hubby has wanted a black lab since…well… as long as he can remember. And the last couple months that I have been home I have been considering it more and more. Actually it started in Africa- the boys in the village had a dog, and I just saw how much they loved him and took care of him.
A few weeks ago I started thinking about it more seriously, and the other day began really searching for the right pup for us. We wanted a fully house trained dog, up-to-date on all shots, who didn’t dig/chew/act crazy, was good with kids, and was free… It was a tall order. But God hooked us up and we got in touch with a great couple who had rescued a dog whose owners were going to send her to the pound. (Turns out the wife went to HPC for ten years and did a few medical outreaches at the Dream Center!) They have had her a couple months and have done an amazing job taking care of her, and now she’s all ours 
She was called Happy, but we have renamed her Harper.
Moses.freaked.out, which we totally expected. But in just a few hours, he had totally warmed up to her. I mean, Presley’s in love with Harper, but Moses isn’t quite there yet. He’s quickly coming around and I can just see her as our perfect little puppy princess. I got a feeling she’s gonna rule this roost!
Here are some pics of our precious pup, Harper, on her first day home with us:
therapy dog!
Very cute! Labs are the best. Our chocolate lab, Mocha, would be in love with Harper:)
jillian that’s so funny! it wasnt my intention, but she has been really awesome to have around
becky- when we finally all get together we will have to bring the dogs!
Hmm, what does Wally think of this therapy dog?
hehehe ms gail
actually it was a bit of a rough start, but now they are totally getting used to each other. chris is believing they are going to be best buds!!
Maybe with divine intervention.
I’ll see you guys tomorrow, Meghan. I’ll be there early. I’m really looking forward to it. Tell Presley and Moses that I have “Toy Story” for them to watch, and if they don’t like that, I also have Sponge Bob and Nemo.
