"We're just going to look..."

The above statement was exactly what Keats said as we walked into the Longmont Humane Society last Saturday. (We only stopped because we were flagged into the parking lot by a man in a yellow dog costume!)
We walked around the humane society (which is SO nice and clean) and looked at all of the dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, etc. and when we came to one pen, we couldn't stop looking and saying "Awww!"
We decided to take this sweet little guy outside to play with him "just to see if we liked him." (Keats made it sound that easy!)
Well, as you can see, we both became quite attached to "Dylan" the pomeranian mix who had come to the shelter as a stray. We visited him twice before we knew we wanted to make him part of our family.
Meet our newest little man, Nixon. (We changed his name. I can't do human names for animals...)
Eeeeeek! ISN'T HE JUST SO CUTE?!
Rawr.
We felt so good about adopting him and getting him out of this sad, sad pen! (Even though they really are very nice compared to lots of places.)

We brought him home tonight and Bagheera is adjusting surprisingly well. Nixon was neutered yesterday (which was included in our adoption fee, along with microchipping), so he is a big under the weather and sleeping right next to us on the couch right now. He is the cutest!
