I'm Trying Really, Really Hard ...

To hate this dog!
Nick "rescued" a little puppy and has been trying to find it a home for about a week now. There must be something different about this one because we have managed to make it through 4 years of vet school and 5 years of practice since then without bringing anything home from the clinic.
I am pretty pragmatic about puppies, babies, and anything that is cute -- but a lot of work. I don't get terribly swept up in their "cuteness." Camryn has only been sleeping through the night for about 3 weeks now -- since we disposed of the binky. So, I'm enjoying sleeping again! I am a wee bit of a clean nut, so I enjoy not having to clean any pee spots -- other than the occasional oopsie Cam has if we don't diaper her fast enough after bath -- or lots of pet hair or my cords and kid toys being chewed up.
There are so many reasons to send this pup packing . . . or maybe not.

He (she?) looks like a keeper to me! And Cori's right... Cooper needs a little cousin to play with. :o)

Congrats on the new dog (ha ha) Maybe you could surprise Nick and say okay only if it works out. We just got our first little puppy and although it is work I really like him. The pees are really small and the poops with little dogs so that helps.
