New addition to the Family... we got a dog.
So this little guy was at the humane society. He never barked, and he seemed a little shy. Out in the meet and greet area, he was super friendly, but calm.
The humane society said he appears to be mini pin and chihuahua. Maybe all chihuahua. I don’t really give a shit what he is. He’s cool as fuck, and my wife loves him, so that’s all that really matters.
Supposed to be 3-4 years old. Definitely leash trained. Always walks to the right of everyone.
Bought a dog bed and immediately he knew what it was and jumped right in as if he owned it for years.
Assuming he’s housebroken. He hasn’t pissed a drop since we picked him up. I’m assuming it’s nervousness. We have had lots of walks and opportunities, just hasn’t squeezed a drop.
He has drank some water and eaten two treats and some kibble.
Mrs. Cooker likes him a lot.
I think he’s pretty damn awesome.

May I introduce to you, Louis, the newest member of the Family.

When we brought Molly home she did not go to the bathroom for 2 days.

Have had a couple rescues along the way with similar result - they took a couple days to get their plumbing operating regularly.

Congrats on the new addition, he looks like a fine chap and that your wife likes him already is a big +.

Cute! Nice woan woan. When raised right, chihuahua's are great. I miss mine.

It always makes my day to hear of someone adopting a dog. Give him a few days and not only will his plumbing start working but he'll probably find his voice.

Great looking dog and thanks for adopting him.

Nice looking pup. Hopefully he'll continue to be a non-barker. My pup only barks when she's afraid of something or playing. Congrats!

So we haven’t had a dog since we first got together.

That was almost 17 years ago.

This dog is pretty great. Like i feel we won the lottery with this dog. Super awesome.

Very nice, I like him too. Congrats to you guy and him. Surely he is a mix. How big is he? His colors are very similar to an Australian shepherd we had many years ago.

He’s about 8.5 lbs. yes, at his size, the .5 is a big deal.
