Puppy Udpate

Well, Lincoln has been here for 2 weeks now, and he is settling in nicely. As you can see, he feels quite comfortable here :)
He is still pretty calm, but loves to rough house with Tim or Art.  He's pretty gentle with the girls, usually.  He likes to bark at squirrels, but otherwise is fairly quiet.  He stays in his crate when we are not home, and is always happy to see us!

Last Saturday, we put up the Christmas tree and decorations.

 I just love the colour of this poinsettia!  It is much more red than it looks in the photo.  I've never seen one with variegated leaves like this!

Hope you are all preparing for a very wonderful Christmas too!

Meet Lincoln!

Meet our new family member!  The kids have always wanted a dog, and so this year's Christmas present is - Lincoln!  

We adopted him from a dog rescue organization.  They estimate he is about a year old.  He and his two siblings were found wandering by the side of the road in Ohio.  They went to a pound there, and the other two were adopted.  Lincoln was scheduled to be euthanized, but happily was rescued before that happened!

He spent a couple weeks at a foster home here in London, got all his shots, was micro-chipped, and now he lives with us!

The kids are so happy - I think he will be a very spoiled puppy for the first little while anyway.

Tim says his childhood is now complete!

He's just the perfect size 

Natalie is in love

Tired after today's excitement..

Feel free to come by and meet him anytime!

Hint

This is where he will sleep
