Ladies and gentlecats, say hi to Homie the dog, a new addition to Dylan and Jacquelyn’s happy home. He’s a miniature Labradoodle pup with magically hypoallergenic fur.

And, COME ON. LOOK AT THAT FACE.

Those who know me well know that I’m not much of a dog person. An incident with a massive (hey, I was 5) St. Bernard (flanked by two black yippy things) set me down a long road of dog fear.

For the sake of my sunshine, Kitara, I’ve been putting on a brave face around dogs which, amazingly, is helping me to become more comfortable with them.

But this guy? Oh, he was perfect. Bark-less during his visit to the station, he let me pick him up, which I only attempted because I noticed he was comparative to a Size L baby. He was only slightly squirmy, very licky, and mostly all fur. I could work with this.
