has the time arrived?

There are some who may posit that from the time I met one I wanted one.

My first word, dog.

My first next door friend, Ollie.

I am cautiously excited to announce that in the next several days zed and I will very likely be welcoming a new 4 legged, lovely creature into our home.

Bobby, who we speculate will most likely be nicknamed Boo, is a white Havanese male with 3 years of age. He was rescued a few weeks ago in Portland, OR by the national Havanese Rescue organization. He is a little underweight (8 lbs), but other than that he is healthy. It has been reported that he is shy, shows no aggression, but is scared. I already feel a strong desire, even need, to love and protect him.
