After our devastating loss this week, Logan decided to get a new pet - not to replace Romeo but to help us heal. He thought it would be a good idea to adopt a pet and save a life. So, that's just what we did.
We visited the Humane Society of Northeast Texas. Logan knew he wanted another small dog (but not a chihuahua that looked like Romeo) but wasn't sure what kind or what they would have available. He was immediately drawn to, Shammie, the filthiest and scruffiest dog in the place! She had just been placed on the available list.....
They have a playroom where you can take the dogs to checkout their personalities, play with them, & fall in love with them (they know what they're doing!) - so, we did.
Since it's going to be four of us soon, I had to get permission to add another dog to the mix. Thankfully, Darin was very much okay with the idea. (He had already thought about surprising me with a dog.) So, I filled out the paperwork, waited on pins and needles for adoption approval, paid my fee, and we were out of there.
I drove straight to the store to buy TRIXIE-BELLE a new bed and Dawn dish detergent (because of it's powerful flea killing power!).
Trixie has proven to be an excellent addition to our family. She is 1 year to 1 1/2 years old, healthy ~ all 5.4lbs of her ~ loving, devoted (to Logan), smart, and HOUSE-TRAINED (shewwww). She is already spoiled and knows it! She's the perfect lap-dog but also loves to play.

I think Logan will have a good summer after all.
