Ben

This is Ben. Previously he was a Benji, but that's so cliche and the only other name in the running was Bolt (per Grace). My vote counts more than Grace's because I am still only the current 'no' vote and he's still in his foster phase. My number one rule is/was "no animals that poop", technically he has not pooped yet, but still I really have reservations about having an animal...as you can tell my mind has been changed for me. He has won over Grace, Rich, and James. Kate, Miles, and I are still in various degrees of conversion.

He didn't look to loved when we picked him up, his hair is nasty and ragamuffin so we hope to prove he has a current rabies shot and take him to a doggie day spa tomorrow and make him pretty. He rode around W Jordan for an hour running errands, visited a pet store and family and has yet to bark or get irritated with all the love he's receiving. He had a bath in the back yard and a trim ala Rich that seem to go positively. He seems very well mannered and patient. I hope that lasts.

For both of our sake.
