and then there were 5...

Our little family of 6 became 5 today.  We took our foster pup, Hank, to his forever home.  We found an amazing girl from Nashville who has been searching for several months for the perfect rescue German Shorthair.  A few weeks ago, Hank and I met her in Montgomery for a play date and decided it was a great match.  She's an active runner and I think he will enjoy being her running partner.  I have to admit I shed quite a few tears over saying goodbye.  I've just had to remind myself that he's going to a great home.  That, and our house has been quite a zoo since he joined us.  Lulu, the cat, has narrowly escaped death/serious injury a handful of times.  I'm pretty sure she would throw a party tonight if she could.  :)  I will definitely miss the best snuggler I ever met, but am happy to return to our family of five.

and we wonder why we can't grow anything in our backyard...

Hank has a funny way of pinning his ears back that make him look like Dumbo!

how many dogs do you know that lay down to eat??

the dog loves to snuggle

Mr. Hank, you will definitely be missed by the Gill family (except Lulu).  We were so happy to have you with us and wish you a long wonderful life with your new mom!
