Well, we sold our little Cocker Mix puppy, Tessa. Very sweet - but too destructive. Thankfully, within a day she went to a wonderful home. So, we are officially DONE with the puppy thing! However, in pursuit of a companion for Dakota, we took in Toby - a 7 year old male American Eskimo. He was very sweet and Dave was "reliving" his childhood. Unfortunately, Toby was a "marker" and "puker" - oh yes! And, he was not happy when I would try to take something away from him - snap! So, poor Toby had to return to his place of incarceration and wait for another family to adopt him. Now, I can say - today - that I am over my "obsession" with getting another dog. However, I'M not holding my breath! ;)
