And they called it puppy love...

After about three months of hemming and hawing about it, I have finally adopted a dog. His name is Alex, and he's about six weeks old, so he's still pretty tiny. He's a Sheltie mix (basically a miniature collie), and he'll probably only get to be about 30 pounds. He's very sweet and smart, and of course I have a totally unbiased opinion.

Randi's Lab Winnie has taken very well to him, and has actually taken on a very motherly role with him. She's still figuring out exactly how to play with someone so little without hurting him though. But Alex bounces back pretty quickly when Winnie accidentally knocks him down with a big paw--he jumps right back up, tail wagging, ready for more.

Ok, what you've all been waiting for...pictures of my baby!

Hiding by the fireplace--moving into a new home takes some adjustment.

Ok, that's just a teaser. If you want to see my whole online photo album of Alex, click here.
