Meet Our Newest Addition

Krosby!


We adopted this sweet dog on Saturday. After months of talking about adding a dog to our family, we went to an adoption at Petsmart. His big brown doe eyes caught our attention. We spent some time with him and decided he would be a great fit for our family. He came to live with us that afternoon!

He's a lab/shar pai mix. He's 9 months and totally full grown. He has a very sweet disposition and is great with the kids! He's house and kennel trained, which is awesome. He hasn't had a single accident while in the house, even when he was in the kennel for 3 1/2 hours while I was at work. He rarely barks. Really, he's the perfect dog. He does get a bit excited and try to jump up on you sometimes but we're training him not to do that. The boys love him. Owen loves to play fetch with him, and I must admit, it's nice that Owen has someone to chase around outside. They both roll around in the grass and in general make a mess but hey, they're boys.

I'm not much of an animal person but I can't help but love this sweet guy.

His name, Krosby, was my idea - it's the name of one of the characters from one of my favorite shows, Parenthood. It fits him well.

Welcome to the fam, Kros!
