Puppy Love

This weekend is my sister-in-law's wedding! I love wedding weekends. When D's family comes in to town from Colorado we generally end up having a dog stay with us.

D's dog is names Moose and for good reason. He is huge! I grew up in a dog-less family so the first time I met Moose I was really nervous. He hopped right up and put his paws on my chest and I think I stifled a shriek in front of the entire family. I'm cool. I like-ish Moose, we seem to have come to an understanding but Danny is in looooove with him. 

Grammy, D's 87-year-old grandmother, has a dag named Benny. Most of the time she calls Danny Benny, which exemplifies her love for her pup. Benny is also the first dog I fell in love with and the dog we get to watch this weekend. He has these huge eyes that make my heart go soft.

Since I grew up with a family that was not a big fan of dogs (that has changed since, but it was the way I was raised) I had always been hesitant about having a dog in my future family. But ever since I met Benny I have been looking for the perfect dog for me and D. I generally lean toward the Australian Labradoodle because they are the cutest dogs ever but I change my mind ever few weeks (much like which medical school I lean toward). When I do research about a med school I always do an apartment/neighborhood search. I look for good schools, how close they are to the med school, and obviously, if they are dog friendly. I have found the perfect apartment in Virginia, Nebraska, Georgia and Upstate New York.

Keep your fingers crossed.
