pant-icipation

Dennis' new puppy-to-be was born last night. We got the news today, and Dennis gets first choice of the litter of seven. It looks like we'll be owners of TWO Labrador retrievers near the end of September. I bathed the elderly lab this afternoon and thus far have successfully kept him from rolling in mud. It takes some work to wash a big solid animal! Here's hoping he imparts some wisdom and manners to his soon-to-be little doggy brother (or sister if Dennis chooses a girl, which I seriously doubt). I can't wait to hear what he's going to name his dog. So far, the main contender is Optimus Prime Mitchell. That seems like a big mouthful to have to say to call a dog. Other names he's considering: Hiccup or Chuck. I can't wait to see what he decides.
