Jake the Dog and Alec the Human

Alec is Getting a Dog!

Jake the DogIf you don’t know my mom then you don’t know how big of a deal this is. I have heard my mom say before that as soon as a dog walks in the front door then she is walking out the back door…forever. This is a big sacrifice for my mom, but I think this will be so good for Al. We are all here for Alec and will do everything we can for him, and hang with him as much as possible. But, in those quiet moments when we are not around he will have this dog to love him all day long.  It is a Havanese, and he is just a little guy that will be around 8 pounds when he is full grown. Al had a tough time coming up with a good name for him. Being the mega nerd that he is, he first came up with some elvish names from Lord of the Rings. Then he wanted to name it after one of the 13 dwarves from The Hobbit. After counseling with everyone in the fam he decided on the name Jake. The name came from a cartoon show he loves called Adventure Time. There is a dog named Jake that is probably the funniest dog on T.V right now. If you have never seen the show then click here to see who he is.

His Hair is Starting to Fall Out!

Bald AlecThis just started to happen today. If you pull on a clump of hair from his head then some of it comes off. I have been pulling it off all day, I love doing it for some reason :/ I know, it’s kind of weird. I am trying to convince him to get a some sort of crazy or hipster hair cut before it all falls out. He isn’t convinced yet, give it a couple days and I’ll get him to do it. I created a preview with my phone of what he might look like when it all starts to fall out ha. He is going to be a very handsome bald dude.

      We decided on that breed because I guess they don’t shed or bark much. We are picking it up from the airport in a couple weeks!

    Holly’s dog served the same purpose that Jake will serve Alec–a good loyal friend that is there for him all the time. Did you know that dog spelled backward is God? That is no mere coincidence! Maybe I need a dog…
