Timmy!

After much sadness over the loss of the Danes, we have added our newest "family" member: Timmy! He is about 12(ish) weeks old now and is full beagle. He has absolutely the best temperament of any puppy you could hope for including the important aspects of not peeing in the house, not chasing the cats, and not being TOO rough with Minnie. Minnie adores "her" puppy toy. She had gotten very, very depressed with the loss of Luke. She is so in love with Timmy and only chews on him a little bit when she gets climbed on and used as a toy.

Timmy will also be our super hero in the upcoming homeschool project "Super Puppy". Everyone else will have staring roles in the upcoming feature as well. *IF* for some reason you happen to know of a great, cheap, place to get animal costumes (or have some that come in either a GIANT mastiff size or a small beagle puppy size or even perhaps a cat size we could borrow for an afternoon and then return) let me know. I'm looking to make this into an epic story in multiple installments.

Our soon to be super hero: Super Puppy!

 Timmy and Minnie just playing a little.

This wee man has taken a particular fondness to holding the puppy on his lap. Mattie was never very comfortable with the Big Boys and the puppy is a bit more solid than the cats. Plus after a few minutes, Timmy just falls asleep. 

Snuggles on the sofa with his favorite kids.

 

Hiding under the sofa. THIS activity isn't going to last much longer.
