The addition of Milo
All of a sudden we have a really big dog and a really little dog. They look really funny together. Keep in mind that Mike and I never really planned on having more than one dog. And neither one of us really like small dogs either. However here we are the proud new owners of Milo, a Jack Russell Terrier. I've had a weakness for that breed ever since "Wishbone" and Mike knew the dog and knew he was very well behaved and sans the annoying hyper-ness that is prevalent in little dogs. A lady that he works with needed to get rid of Milo, and we thought that maybe he'd be good company for Edelweiss and knew that Parker would enjoy having a dog more his size. And boy does he ever. Parker calls Milo "baby puppy" and gets worried when he gets out of sight. It's even more exciting to Parker that Milo gets to ride in the car and come in the house. He's a pretty excited little guy and everything that Milo does is hilarious. Milo for his part does well putting up with Parker but is still getting used to the loud and spastic actions.I don't think I'll mind have a dog in the house as he really does listen really well and cleans up all of Parker's messes. And he sleeps in the basement with Moses. Poor Moses; as if life in the basement could get any worse. :) Here's a few pictures.

every country boy needs a dog! looks like you've found a good fit. and being short-haired, he'll be low maintenance to clean up after. i bet parker is thrilled beyond belief. is he parker's, or the family's?
ReplyDeleteI suppose he's the family's but I keep giving Parker crackers to give to him so they'll bond. ;)
ReplyDeleteawww, he's cute! and that's good to have parker give him crackers - then he'll associate really good things with little kids!
