Introducing Macey!

Well, we finally did it.  We got a new puppy.  Originally I had wanted to wait until next spring, but then just starting feeling like it was time.  So, we got our carpets cleaned and then waited for the rains to begin...time to get a puppy. :)

We met Macey at the Oregon Humane Society.  She was in a pen with her sister and originally we had wanted the sister instead. Another family adopted the sister.  Then Jim and I agonized if it was the right dog, the right time, etc.  The kids were ALL over the puppies and didn't have any hesitation.  After lots of thought, we decided to go for it.  And we are so glad we did.  She is amazing.

The two sisters all curled up sleeping together.

On the car ride home, taking turns holding Macie.  So so so happy.
Macey's profile on Petfinder.  Jim gets credit for finding her...and it felt like serendipity that her original name was Mary Lou.  Maybe Lou was involved in helping us find her.
Macey loves to cuddle when she's not playing.  She is such a snuggler.

She came to us already paper trained and she is doing amazing.  No accident anywhere yet, and it's been 24 hours.

We love her so much.  Welcome to the family, Macey!

Oh she's so cute! I can't believe no accidents in the first 24 hours. I think Zoe peed in the house 10 times or more in the first 24 hours!! Can't wait to meet her!
