bear
here is a photo of the new dog. his current name is “bear”, it may change. i am insisting that we spell his name with lowercase letters to make him totally 1337 and web2.0 compatible.

he was rescued from a family in dubuque, iowa where he was very much unloved. his previous family left him in his crate most of the time and ignored him for most of the first 18 months of his life. they finally decided to return him to the breeder because they felt it was unfair to the dog — in reality the dog was getting depressed and took to chewing his fur off (thus the reason for his shaving) and the people probably didn’t want to deal with it anymore. anyway, the breeder sent out the alarm to the rescue network and i guess my parents were next in line — or closest, or something. anyway, we have him now. he is a very friendly dog and loves any attention he gets.
