New Addition...Hermes

As most of you know, our mini-dachshund, Athena has taken the addition of Hope into our family pretty hard. Although she has warmed up to Hope and she seems to like her now, or at least tolerate her, she has still been jealous and lonely. We have been trying to find her a doggy friend, but after many attempts, we haven't been able to find a good match. Well, last night I decided to tag along with Andrew and Cassie to Pensacola for Sushi and puppy drooling at Petland. See, Andrew and Cassie have found this adorable puppy they want to buy, but are waiting to buy it until they move into their new house. So, they are traveling to Pensacola about once a week to "eat sushi" and check on her. After meeting their cute Toto dog, I decided to bring Hope around to see the rest of the puppies. She loved it and giggled every time we passed puppies roughhousing. Somewhere near the end of the row I saw a cute little mini-dachshund sleeping in a ball. Now, I know the pups at Petland are way over-priced, so I wasn't even thinking about getting him, but I was curious to see how over-priced he was. Well, turns out he was on super-clearance because he was getting to old to stay there. So, naturally I asked to hold him. After playing with him and emailing Jason a few pictures and video, we decided he was perfect. It was a long night in Petland (three hours to be exact), but well worth it. I brought our new puppy home and he fit in right away. Athena and him played until midnight and woke up early this morning to play some more. He is a perfect match.
