Our New House Guest - Henry

Well, Henry has been with us for almost a whole week and he is adjusting perfectly and we absolutely love him! In fact, for a couple of days I wasn't sure that I was going to be able to give him to Kim and Don. But, our house just isn't big enough for two dogs and he'll love living at their house so I guess I'll give him to them (as long as they let me visit every once in awhile).

He had a "spa" day before he came to our house so his hair is really short now and his nails are clipped! The first day he was a little nervous and wandered around trying to figure everything out. However, the next day he was part of the family and especially likes sleeping in Molly's bed. I'm sure who likes that more, Henry or Molly! Todd took him to the golf course for the first time today and he hasn't yet learned to come back when he is called so I don't think he'll be going back any time soon but now we know that we have to work on that before he goes to Arkansas.

Now, Elly liking Henry is a completely different story! She is not a huge fan of having another dog to share the attention with and has actually been pretty depressed this week. She is used to being the "princess" of the house and just really doesn't like having another dog around who also gets loved on. So, although the people in our house will definitely be sad when Henry leaves but Elly will be much relieved to be the dog of the house again!

Here are some pictures of him from this week.

That's a lot of dog hair. How are you coping?

I still cannot believe Molly is blonde.
