Introducing Nox!

For months now we've been getting our puppy fill by going to the Humane Society of Huron Valley and playing with or taking dogs for walks.  There are have been lots of cuties needing a family, but none struck us as the one to join our family.

And then everything changed.

We've been feeling a bit antsy lately about finding the right dog for us.  We've been scoping out golden doodle breeders online and also rescue puppies from petfinder.com.  We knew about a Petsmart program, Rescue Waggin', which brings animals from kill shelters down south to no-kill shelters, but we kept missing the new pups that were being brought to the Huron Valley Humane Society.  So, feeling very determined, we found out when the next few arrival dates were.  About two weeks ago was a new arrival, and we found him!

Nox: An Awesome Puppy!

Nox (Latin for night) is 13 weeks old.  The shelter he came from thought he was a flat-coated retriever / hound mix.  If he doesn't get the long hair of a flat-coated retriever, then he's probably a labrador retriever / hound mix.  Sadly, we've heard Nox howl once or twice, so we believe that he's part hound.  So far he's a pretty laid back puppy (he does get pretty energetic and rowdy sometimes, but we bought lots of toys for him, and we have the nice, fenced backyard), and we're glad he's here!
