Alright for starters I mean dog adoption and not a permanant stay with us either. It all began about a month ago when Ryan and I were joking that we were going to steal our neighbors dog because she was so cute and they just didn't seem to care about her. She never got a bath, ran around without a collar on and could get out from the courtyard to ran anywhere or have anyone pick her up. Ryan and I had talked about when we moved, just taking her with us so that she would have someone to care for her. Obviously we have not moved yet and we didn't steal the dog either. Tuesday night when Ryan got home from work though Alli, the dog, ran into the garage and started digging in our trash as soon as the door opened. He picked her up to bring her to the owner and then started talking. The owner said they had run out of ideas and that they were taking her to the pound in the morning; her behavioral problems were just too much for them. Ryan mentioned to him that we would be willing to take care of her or try training her for them. They said no, they couldn't ask us to do that. Then, when I got home, Ryan and I talked about it and then went to their house to pick up our new dog!! The owners were very happy that we were willing to take her and train her, although they did not express an interest in getting her back. She is a schnauzer and bichon mix. Adorable! Of course, we made a deal that we would not keep her. Luckily, Lauren, one of my friends wants a schaunzer really bad!! She was so excited when I told her about the puppy we had just "adopted." Needless to say we no longer had a Alli, we had a Addie in our house! Ryan and I both enjoy training dogs and we have a lot more flexible schedules than Lauren and her boyfriend do, so Ryan and I are going to train her for the next two weeks. Lauren is going to puppy proof her apartment, buy puppy necessities and work her way through finals and we get to train her baby! Normally Ryan and I would want her to take the dog right now. But we don't want Lauren to get frustrated with the training part of it all and not take her.
Long story short....we have another dog in the house!!!.......for the time being. Here are some pictures of our adopted Addie!

AWWWW! She is a cutie! I am glad yall already have someone lined up to take her though, because from the looks of the pictures- she seems to be pretty attached to Ryan. It would have been hard to just give her away to someone you didn't know! Love ya!
