Ernie the Puggle

Hey Keri. We absolutely LOVE Ernie! I honestly believe that fate brought us together and he was meant to be a part of our family. He is the perfect dog! My daughter has had a great time playing tug of war with the dog toys with him, and my son loves running around the yard with him. He is always so happy, and if you even look at him, his tail starts wagging. He's not food or toy aggressive, and he's always happy to share. Seriously, this dog is perfect and we all love him so much! Lucy has started to calm down since he's been here, which is absolutely wonderful. She hasn't peed in the house since Ernie came home, and she isn't under my feet all the time acting like she's afraid I'm going to leave her. The two of them run around in the yard together, but not as much as she would like. She tries to play with him inside the house (like jumps around in front of him wanting to wrestle), but he doesn't usually pay attention to her. Even so, they get along great, and I hope that with some time, she will follow his lead and become a perfect dog too. :-) I haven't had a chance to take any good pictures of the kids with Ernie, but I attached the one of Rylie and him at the shelter, and another one I just took tonight of Rylie and the two dogs sleeping in Bryce's bed. (He's at my mom's house.) I also wrote about Ernie on my blog if you care to read it... http://www.thelifeofrylie.com/2013/06/our-newest-addition-meet-ernie.html. Thank you so much for facilitating our chance meeting with Ernie! I'm so glad that he happened to be at the shelter on Sunday! LeeAnn
