Josh and Christina: August 2007

an addition to the Wright household...

We would like you to meet Luke!

We have been watching the papers for the past few months to see if there are ever any Lhasa Apsos in there, and this weekend we called about one! We went and met him last night and decided to give it a try. As you know, Kowe can be a very sassy and even scrappy girl, so we were nervous about how she would react.

He is 16 months old and his name was Tashi, but we didn't love that name, especially because it sounds like a girl name, so we decided to call him Luke. He already responds to Luke, so it's no problem at all. He's definitely rocking a mullet right now, but we're going to let his hair grow out like Kowe's is and they actually look like they could be brother and sister, despite the fact that Luke is much longer and bigger than our little priss. But he's absolutely the sweetest thing and he listens SO well...much better than Kowe! He's getting neutered in the morning, so hopefully that will help with the (funny) humping problem that he has. (And I say funny because he seems to like his daddy and his sister! I guess maybe it comes with the mullett territory...) Wish us luck! So far, they get along really well. They love to play and Kowe is definitely getting used to not having 100% of our attention, but she's surprisingly good with him.

He's not a barker at all (which we love!...maybe he'll calm her barking down a little!) but he does wimper sometimes, but Kowe is really sweet when he does. She's very cautious and concerned. Hopefully these are signs of good things to come for when we ever get a baby in this house! Anyway, enjoy the pics, as usual, many more to come...
