Professor Scramble

Introducing Professor Scramble:

We finally got a puppy!!!! Yesterday I was searching on Craigslist as always and found some Min Pins for sale and asked Dom if we could go take a look (he doesn't particularly like that breed of dog) and he said yes. When we got there we saw tons of Min Pins in a cage but this little guy was just roaming about the property. I asked if this was the breeders personal dog and he said no, that he bread Springer Spaniels as well. He was just too adorable and Dom liked him better than the Min Pins so naturally we asked if he had a girl. He said there was one and when we went to look at her she shyed away from us and ran to her mom. She never came near and the entire time we were there the puppy shown above tagged along next to us. He played with me and nibbled on Dom's shoe lacies.

We did take the time to look at the Min Pins, especially since that was the type of puppy went to see but we kept going back to the little puppy that chose us. After some discussion and a little haggling, we took Professor Scramble home with us. :) We had a little bit of a rough beginning, what with car sickness, fleas, and pottey training, but in the end we just kept saying how cute he was and he gets more used to us by the minute. Dom's family came over last night and took pictures and played with him and Dom's mom and sister came over again today to do the same thing. It has been so fun and I am just so happy about the new addition to the family. :)

P.S. An explanation of the name: Dom's little sister has a number of stuffed animals she has collected over the years and each time she gets one she names it. When she was younger she would ask Dom what she should name the new addition and he would always say "Scramble." She would just roll her eyes and name it somehting else. So now that he can name his own real pet we decided to go with Professor Scramble. We just say Scramble but on our Honeymoon we came up with this full name and decided to stick with it.
