If all goes smoothly, this may be our new friend!:

He is a four-month old beagle/basset hound. We’ve spent a fair amount of time with him at the SPCA and really like him. If our application comes through and the timing works out, we will be all set.

Now all we need is a name! We have several ideas, including:

* Carl
* Hendrix
* Gordon
* Sam
* Pirate
* Napoleon

My personal favorite has got to be Pirate. Just imagine the scenarios…

“Oh he’s so cute, what’s his name!?”

“Pirate.”

“Oh…um…oh.”

“Hi…pirate.”

“Yarrrr!”

We were pretty set on Charlie Brown but that was vetoed because we found it was used by another family member’s dog.
