Happy Howl-adays

We begged. We pleaded. "We" meaning Priya and I. We have wanted a Yorkshire Terrier for months now. And for months Animesh has been defiant and told us "no way, no how." That we don't have time for another dog. That we're never home. That Spridle is enough.

Well, Animesh had us all fooled. Because on Saturday he surprised ALL OF US by arriving home that afternoon with the most adorable little puppy we could have ever imagined.

Introducing our new little family member, Buddy. He is a 3 month old Yorkshire Terrier, and every single one of us is so in love with this little creature we cannot even stand it. Okay....not every single one of us...our beagle is less than thrilled with what he would call (if he could talk) a very annoying little brother. But we're optimistic that Spridle will come around. Eventually.







There's been a real void since Kirby went to heaven almost 2 years ago. I've even found myself calling Buddy "Kirby" on several occasions. It's so ironic how playful and mischievous Buddy is...exactly how Kirby's personality displayed itself on a daily basis.

Hmmm. Seems Animesh did pretty darn well in surprising all of us this weekend with the little guy. He has fit right into the family.

Well, not according to Spridle. But we know our old, stubborn beagle will come around.

Eventually.
