Meet the Pooch

Three's a charm, right? So here's the new dog, Eb! He's a Jack Russell Terrier - and true to breed, he's a ball of energy and personality... He's only marginally a rescue dog - He came from my cousin - who is in the middle of moving - and needed a semi-if-not-permanent home for Eb (E.B., that is - he was born a little early, thus "E"arly "B"ird. He's now 8, and answers to Eb when it seems opportune for him to do so). He's pretty funny.

I knew I was in for it when he made an editorial comment yesterday... I took him to PetSmart (I wanted to see what he was like around other animals) I bought Eb a bone - and gave it to him when we got back in the car. He proceeded to bury it in a pile of bags and other miscellaneous hoo hah I keep behind the back seat.... as if to say "Hey! It's like burried treasure back here already!!!!

Can a dog make you blush? Maybe.

He then proceeded to attempt to bury the bone in my neighbor's garden - Now, he keeps it lying around the house. I think he likes it because last night, he brought it to bed with him - not to chew on - just to have it there.
