So, Not to be outdone by the Mitchell’s, we needed to add to our family again. Since this summer we shrunk by one member, we felt the need to re-add man's, (kid's) best friend.
Our neighbor has friends with a beautiful well trained dog. They have 4 kids ages 2-7 (just like us). Their daughter has autism, and with her increasing needs, and inability to comprehend the needs of the dog, they had to find a new home for Maddox. Knowing that we lost our dog this summer, and that our family structure was very similar to these friends, he agreed to take the dog and work his magic at convincing us we were the right home for the orphaned dog. All it took was seeing this massive thing. The kids kept asking if Maddox can stay here forever. Now how can you say no? What a brilliant well laid plan. My neighbor was actually setting us up for a perfect fit.
He is already trained and out of his puppy / poopy stages. Last night when the lights went out, he decided to stroll the home, and eventually lay at the side of the Girl’s bed, and fell asleep on the floor next to them. By morning however, he was found lying in the boy’s room next to the boys. We assume it is b/c he went to Drayden who was up with a bad dream in the middle of the night. He is so well trained and a lot of fun. We are so excited!!
Maddox measures in at 2.5+ ft tall from floor to back, and 3+ft to the top of his head. He measures roughly the same in body length when standing.
What a great Christmas present for the family.
