7-Up?

Does this boy look familiar? No you say? You're right--he's new! Parker arrived yesterday and is still less than 24 hours in our home. So far accepted by all and no complaints from Parker either. He had a broken hock two years ago, and since then he has lived at the kennels and hasn't had a lot of physical therapy. He's shown improvement in the last 2 weeks, and we'll allow a few more before a decision is made for any further surgery to correct the mismatched bone. So for now, he tends to limp on the right rear leg.


He made himself comfortable in short order, taking less than an hour to begin "roaching" and throwing stuffed toys around.

If all continues to go well, we will finalize his adoption shortly. It's odd going from a "6-pack" to "7-Up", but I think we will adapt quickly.

He has quite a personality, loves to give kisses (he can't hold his licker), and is a tail-wagger.

Finally, some remodel photos

The remodel of the kitchen was completed in late-April. It has taken longer to post the photos than it took to do the work! Here are several views of the new kitchen. Click here for more detailed photos.
