Dog Days of September

It’s been a month-plus now since Jake adopted us and all is well. He’s a happy fella, and now that Mandy has figured out that he isn’t just here for a visit, she’s even initiated a few play sessions.

More we’ve learned about Jake:
• His nose gets cold, so he has to find a place to keep it warm.

• He likes to cuddle; he really likes to cuddle with Tom.

• He’s murder on stuffed toys. Poor blue elephant-baby has had three ear surgeries.

• He’s not too proud to take over anyone’s part of the bed.

• In pinch my lap will do.

And in the process, I got a really good picture of Mandy. It’s hard to get a good picture of a black dog when the flash always gives her devil eyes, but not this time.

There’s more Jake living the life he deserves, including a movie here.
