Meet the newest member of our family!

This last weekend we looked into adopting another dog so that Moose would have another friend. We went to meet a Border Collie on Sunday. It was safe to say that Moose did not like that dog, which is weird because Moose generally likes anything that moves. So we decided that maybe going the puppy route may be better...On Monday night after work we drove up to Longmont, which is almost 2 hours away. We ended up with this little guy...
We don't have a name picked out for him yet. There are a few on the table. He is 9 weeks old. He is part German Short-haired Pointer,  and part lab. He looks way more like a lab to me.

Moose is very patient with him, and very willing to share his things. When he gets fed up, he just walks away from him. The new puppy's favorite thing is to attack Moose's tail, and pull fur out of it. Poor Moose. Sometimes he doesn't understand that the puppy is so much smaller than he is, and tries to play a little bit too rough. 

Moose is already teaching him how to beg

Puppies are very high maintenance, especially this one. He is extremely clingy. When we put him in the bathroom at night he barks and howls all night...safe to say we are tired.
