The New Addition
by sandihester
I would like to introduce you to Cooper’s new best bud – Templeton! I’ve been keeping my eye on PetFinders – a website that lets you see what dogs are up for adoption around you – for a couple of months. Cooper LOVES other dogs and I thought since we have all this land why not get another one :)! This little guy is a great fit for our family – he’s laid back – he’s kind of like a little old man – he moves slow and gentle unless he’s playing with Cooper. They have some major WWF wrestling matches – they just waller around on the floor together and then after the wrestling match they both collapse in sheer exhaustion! Templeton came for a “sleep over” this weekend to see if he’d be a good fit and it went WAY better than I ever imagined it would go. If I start back volunteering at a nursing home he will be a great one to take with me to love on the old people because he’s very gentle and has an old soul and is just a love bug. He’s only about a year old but he acts more like he’s 10 years old – except for when he’s playing with Cooper. Cooper acts more like he’s 10 years old now too – guess they are both wearing each other out. It’s a good fit for all of us. It was Grady’s turn to name our dog and I think he came up with a great name that fits this dog really good!
He is a cutie. So glad that he & Cooper are good buddies already.
Thanks Mom!!! Look at you leaving a comment – I’m impressed!!! Can’t wait for the kids to meet this little guy – they will love him because he’s very calm – not in your face and jumping like Cooper.
How cute! I love 4 legged friends!
Precious pups!!! (Oh how I miss you my friend!!!:)
I miss you too! Maybe we can squeeze in a few mintues to see each other this week!
Sandi, I am so glad he is such a good fit for your family! I couldn’t have asked for a better forever home for him 🙂 As a foster I often worry about what kind of home the dogs will be in. I have never felt more comfortable with an adopting home. If you ever have any problems or questions, please let me know! I hope that Cooper loves his new friend, and they stay besties forever 🙂 Keep in touch!
Well, Brittany that sure is a high compliment. We felt like having you as his foster mom was as much a blessing to us – it was a great process for us and we really enjoyed meeting you and your kids! I hope this process is good for them too.
The boys loved seeing pictures, but loved Templeton’s name even more, I think! They know the name from Charlottes Web, so they were amused 🙂
Miss you!
I knew the name sounded familiar but I hadn’t placed it yet! Are yall going to your grandma’s wedding?
