As you may recall I lost my boy Tobey on 12/26/22. I live alone most of the time, and really need a dog for a million different reasons but mostly for my physical and mental well being. So I began a dog search pretty quickly. Now there is no WAY another dog could ever replace Tobey, so this was certainly not done with any disrespect for my recently passed little buddy. So I looked at about a zillion dogs online and at local shelters and as soon as I saw this guy something clicked. I did the paperwork and had him shipped from Houston TX up to CT (it was as far north as they would travel), and my gf and I finally got to meet him and take him home about 2:15 AM this morning. He was in a foster home, not a shelter, which was nice. They had given him the name Peanut Butter, so that had to go. The pictures don't do him justice but he is brindle in color and in the sun looks almost like a tiger. So he is now Hobbes, named for a character in my favorite comic as a kid and as an adult. I'm in love already even though he left a turd the size of a small child on my living room rug last night when I went to take a leak. Here he is:
