We're similar, Raven! The whole "dogs as pets" thing was new to me, too. My guess is that yours will get real busy as he gets older! But Shadow is pretty cool.

He actually helps my fatherly anxiety because he hears more noises in the night than I do--so if he isn't barking, I'm going back to sleep! LOL!

And I'm sure you'll be a great "dog mom"!

Thanks for reading! And commenting!
