Emerson the Wonder Pooch!!
Don't fall out of your chair blog readers (or Gabby), I am actually posting something to the blog. The reason for the post is that there is a new member in the Wood family! Meet Emerson the Wonder Pooch! Matt and I had been looking to adopt a corgi since we moved to our new house in Livermore. We choose the corgi breed because the dog had to be under 20 pounds and we of course drew inspiration from Mikey's love of corgis. Matt was the one who found Emerson on petfinder.com. We went to see him that night at the Oakland Animal Shelter and feel in love with his funny little furry sausage body and fox like face. He is such a little love bug but has A LOT A LOT of energy. The pound thought he was 2 years old but we learned from the vet he's more like 1 to 1 1/2 years old. Which makes sense because his energy is ENDLESS. This week we start dog training classes so all that energy can be channeled into tricks. I really want to teach him the "bang bang you're dead" trick so hopefully that's something he can learn. We have had him for almost a month and we couldn't be happier. Sadly we will turn into one of those annoying dog people who have endless pics and videos of their pet. Get ready for more photos of our little friend.

ReplyDeleteNow that you have Matt trained, I guess you needed another challenge huh Kim?!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou know how I feel about animals, so the most exciting part about this post was that Kim did it!! You should have called it "Kim the wonder blogger!"
ReplyDeleteJason's comment is, "I like that dog." (He says that about all dogs though.. I've never heard him say, "I don't like that dog.")
