So, Katherine saw this dog on Facebook and said, "Mom, you have to see this dog. He is the ugliest thing ever! He looks like Steve Buscemi." (Of course, I am paraphrasing, but she really did refer to the actor.)
I saw his picture and found out his owner died recently. He needed a home. I've been wanting a dog, although I never thought I'd get a slightly large dog. Still, he's so funny-looking I fell in love with him. Katherine DM'd the woman fostering him, and we found out she lives nearby.
Liz brought Mickey to visit us and I think we made a really good impression, because now he is ours. We went through a fostering agency--Michelle lives around the block from us! She took him for his vet checkup, and on Saturday our boy came to live with us forever.
The cats are NOT happy, but they are slowly adjusting. Atticus is coming around a lot faster than Raven.
Blood work came back today and we found out Mickey has Lime disease but Michelle is bringing us antibiotics.
Here is our new boy:
Who could resist that face? He is a sweet, gentle boy. A little miffed by the cats but we hope time will help them get along.
