First Post

I've been curious about getting into blogging since I read quite a few of them. I decided that Mickey was as good an excuse as any to get started.

So far I can document his cuteness, the progress in housebreaking, and his ability to destroy every toy we get for him.

To start things out, here is the photo sent to us by Homeward Trails after we applied to adopt one of the puppies from his litter. He does such a good job posing! You can see his little milk chin and white tux shirt.

For a flashback, here is the description the foster mom wrote about Mickey (then known as Tipper)

Black Male - Tipper - for the white tip on his tail. He was the hardest to get to know. He is quite independent when with the other pups. At the same time though, he plays well with all of them. The other male and him constantly play tug of war. He loves to engage people then runs off to do his own thing. The thing I love about him is the way he looks at you. I hold him on my chest and he looks up at me with eyes that say "I love you". He keeps eye contact forever. So sweet. He is a pretty low maintenance baby. He chews a bit but just what you would expect from a pup. Most of the time he is easily distracted. He is the one that I laugh at with the Husky. When he is in the pen and she walks by, he pounces and barks and makes quite the stir. Brad picked him up and held him close to her and he cowered into his arms. Tough guy when there is a cage! He would make a great companion for just about anyone. He is so easy going.
