Ezio

The past LONG time Skyeler and I have been talking about getting a puppy. (not because Alex and Ryan have two) but because it has been really hard for me living in Richfield and in someones elses house. Yes I am very grateful for the opportunity but there are some serious negative downgrades from going to your own home to someone elses basement. One is just the fact that you go to living your own life with your new family and then kinda being shoved into someone elses family and not having the same responsibilites you once had. Or being in charge of your own life and most of the things around you. But again I am very grateful for the opportunity that we have to be able to get back on our feet. Then I have been feeling quite lonely and depressed since Sky is gone to work 4 days in row every 4 days. I guess I just got really spoiled having him around almost 24-7 when we were in Orem.

So anyway last sunday I went up and got Ezio. He is a cute 4-5 month old Boston Terrier. He is so super cute and full of energy. I wish I could put up a picture but again there is a lack of cords around. SOO frustrating. Anyway I was worried about how Peanut was going to react and we were right about him wanting to attack. But he does that with any new dog or thing that comes close to the home. So I had Ezio in my arms and Peanut was very mean and biting at him and growling and just not happy at all. Well after about 1.5 hrs of sending him outside, putting them face to face, and letting them sniff each others butts Peanut finally realized Ezio wasn't a roadent or skunk and was able to relax and play with him a little. It still took some time for Peanut to really just play and not be totally mean all the time but now it looks like the two of them are best of friends.

Anyway more about Ezio. He is mostly black with white and a few black spots on the white areas. He has a very short coat and so he gets cold very easily and just shakes his back legs when I take him out to go potty. His face is a little squished and so it makes him snore when he sleeps and snorts when playing SOOO FUNNY. Then he has the CUTEST whine ever. So far he loves his crate and it is hard to get him out of it at times just because he just wants to stay in it all day.

I really think that the little puppy has been good for me because I'm not so lonely while Sky is gone (at least the couple days he has been gone since we got him) and I am able to control and train him the way I want him, instead of it being someone elses dog that after I try to train it doesn't stick cause people do what they want with their dog. Totally understandable.



OOH look I got smart and emailed a pic to myself and saved it on the computer. YAY ME!! Anyway I think he is super cute and so much fun. I was wanting to get a girl because i'm the only girl in the house and I felt it would help, but who can pass up an offer of $150 for a puppy when people are asking for $400-600 for them.

Here he is as of now sleeping in his crate face in the blanket and toy rope under his mouth. I find it amazing that he can put his feet all the way up to his face and sleep like that!



Well I hope you think he is super cute. If not oh well I think he is super cute and I love all his silly noises he makes.
