Meet Gilmour


This is Gilmour, the new addition to our family.  My younger daughter has been asking for a puppy since Athena died in March.  After some patience and time, we found this little guy at the local animal shelter.  He's a six month old lab mix, with blue eyes like a husky.  He's definitely a puppy... bursts of intense energy, followed by the sleep of the dead... exuberance combined with a lack of focus... a desire to learn, and a short attention span.  Duchess, my 12-year-old lab mix, is getting used to the change, but I think that Gilmour will be an awesome addition to our family.  Gilmour, by the way, was named by my younger daughter, after David Gilmour of Pink Floyd.

LOL- how precious is he??? Puppies just bring a bit of happiness everywhere they go.

He's turning out to be a very well-behaved boy. The younger daughter selected a fine canine, and she's doing a great job of spending time with him, training him and so forth.
