| Here he comes to save the day - Ender Dog is on the way |
On Veterans Day, we stopped by Buddy Dog and found our new dog. He's a one-year-old male who looks to be at least part Black Lab. His name was supposed to be Biggley (Big & Wiggly), but he didn't respond to it, so my daughter renamed him Ender, after the main character in her favorite book.

Ender is a super playful and fun guy. We are going to have great times together. But right now he's a bit of a handful. He was brought up from South Carolina as a rescue dog, so we'll need to be patient as he gets used to living with us. Already he's doing very well getting house-trained. He's making slower progress in other areas—like jumping up on people and eating shoes (and backpacks and chairs and phones). But he'll be OK. It will just take time. The main thing is he's a happy guy and he's super friendly to everybody.

If anyone's interested, I can tell you all I learned before deciding to adopt a rescue dog instead of buying a pup from a breeder. There are pros and cons to each.
