Sausage and Yet to Be Named
John and I brought home the first of two new additions to our family yesterday! We adopted two dogs on Thursday from our wonderful humane society, Wayside Waifs. We saw some wonderful dogs but when Pete, a Jack Russel Terrier, came out and immediately hugged both of us, we were hooked. There was another beautiful dog named Paola (because he was found in the town of Paola) that was a Beagle/Fox Terrier mix that we liked a lot. We put the two dogs together and they got along and played so we decided to adopt them both. Pete is quite a bit overweight so they called him "Sausage" at the humane society, but we're determined to help this little guy shed those pounds (and maybe we'll shed a couple, too!). He weighs in at 25 pounds, the exact weight limit for our apartment. We'll have to take a picture of them and put it up for you guys to see. Any name suggestions for the second one?

liz and john...i can't wait to see the dogs. please post pictures ASAP . congratulations.
yay! more canine-nephews! i can't wait to see them. why aren't you leaving his name pete? i like that name but maybe he really does look more like a sausage! i'll try to think of names for paola... what is his temperment like?
How 'bout "Bacon" for the other dog?
I think they would be very appropriate names for dogs owned by a vegetarian. :)
I cannot wait to see pictures!! I loved the movie we saw this weekend - Amazing Grace - about Wilbur Wilberforce and the abolition of slavery. I highly recommend it!! How about Pete and Wilbur...if you don't end up going with the meat theme?
