Yes! We got a DOG!

The Leonard family has finally added a canine to the group! His name is Rusty. We adopted him just last week. We was a rescued dog who was left in the desert. He was then going to go to the shelter but my husband caught word from the family that found him that he was a very sweet and well-mannered dog, so we had to check him out. We brought him home on a "trial" basis while Jaxon was at school. And what can I say? He was perfect! He is a blue/red heeler and very smart. He hardly ever barks, he listens so well even to his new name, he is house trained, he is very loving, doesn't bite, jump, dig, shed or even get up on the furniture. Now yes there are some undesirable traits too but they are small and can be worked on. He is flighty because he was abused but he is getting over that really quick. Jaxon loves him! They are good buds, but still need some work. We are just so glad that we could adopt this dog and he is a perfect addition to out little family. I hope that everything continues to work as well as they have, wish us luck!

Here are some pictures of him!
