An homage to our sweet Dooley dog

Adopted at Young Williams Animal Shelter in Knoxville, Tennessee on August 6, 2007 Dooley was about a year old when we got him. I scoped him out on the internet and after visiting him I coaxed Elliott into checking him out too. Dooley met Elliott, peed on his shoe, an affirmative "you're mine," and the rest is history. Dooley was half price... we all know what that means and I am so glad we saved him. He is the most cuddly, lovable, devoted dog I know and I love the little guy!

The last few weeks/months have been crazy. Dooley has been in his cage traveling more than we care to admit and he has been such a trooper, at our heels at every turn as if to say, "I'm here, don't leave me behind!" With all of the uncertainty we've dealt with, I'm certain this poor pup can sense it and knows that we haven't been truly settled until now. Now Dooley has his own yard and more room to roam, a great neighborhood to go for walks in and a mom and dad who are feeling a little less stressed. I love this dog... he's the best.

Dooley really freaked out prior to leaving Minnesota....

Happy fall y'all!
