Woof

Oh yea, we also adopted a dog.

Steve and his wife adopted one also.

They got along great for about 15 minutes when they met the other night. Lots of sniffing and marking, but not even a hint of a growl. Then, food was introduced to the mix, and that changed everything. A bloody paw on Sasha was the only visible wound from the melee that ensued; impressive given the noise the two of them made. Our dog, Tyson, has been listening to commands better since that all went down though.

Last night was a pretty mellow night of a few beers and busting open some board games with Carolyn. Overall its been an unusually low key long weekend.

A Novel Idea for Pet Owners

If you can't keep your animal, namely your poorly trained dog, quiet when it spots strangers, then don't leave the fucking thing roped up in your front yard all day, barking for 15 minutes at a time when someone happens to be outside talking to a neighbour across the street or something.
