THE NEWEST MEMBER OF THE NORTON FAMILY - SERIOUSLY

THIS IS CHUY:


No joke this time! Remember the rambunctious French Bulldog I mentioned in the Puppy Love post, the one I could barely get a picture of? Yep, that's him. We've been back to the pet store four different times, and each time Chris has gotten him out and wanted to get him. I've said no every time because he seemed so wild and mischievous. But it was four against one, the odds were against me. And he had been there 5 weeks which was very unusual (another reason I didn't want to get him - if no one else wanted him, why do we?!?). But he was tugging at the ol' heartstrings so I caved.



He's definitely growing on me - a lot!

 He's so dang cute (yes, Martha, he is!), and he really is sweet. I think he was just super-excited to be out of that "cage" at the pet store that he went into mild-man mode when he got out. Because he's not that way at all. He's definitely a playful puppy but not the "bull-in-a-china-shop" I thought he was going to be. The boys love him (especially Mac) and Grant and Reid's allergies have done exceptionally well (despite what I thought the first time we saw him when I thought it was him who made Grant's face blow up like Will Smith's did in the movie Hitch - yet another excuse I gave of why not to get him).  :)

I found this quote about puppies I thought was cute:

Every puppy should have a boy.
Erma Bombeck


Chuy lucked up and got 3, plus my B. That is one lucky dog! ;)

He looks like a Chuy! The name fits him perfectly? He's short and stumpy just like the real Chuy! :) And probably just as entertaining...fun times!

Random question mark in the last comment...I need to proof read before I submit comments! Ha!
