Maxwell

The boys have always wanted a puppy. All THREE of them! I have been the one that has been against it and have always said no. The day that I witnessed the car accident, I was suppose to be getting some fish for the boys. I didn't get them. A week later, we took the boys to the pet store to finally get their fish. While there, the people at Pet Land asked us if we wanted to hold a puppy. Riley has been in love with Chihuahua's for a long time. We let him hold one. I have never seen the compassion in the boys eyes as they were holding this puppy. I started thinking about how I was the one who didn't want a dog, and thought after this accident, I don't want the boys to ever think that because I didn't want something...they couldn't have it either. Aiden does have dog and cat allergies, but has been fine around some. So...after discussing it...we decided that we would get the Chihuahua that the boys were holding. Well...Riley starting itching all over. He had broken out in hives because of the puppy. We put him back and left. Riley was really sad. At conferences, I was talking to a family in my class and they told me about Yorkies...they don't shed and they don't drool. I started to do a little research on them...and found that a lot of people who have dog allergies, have Yorkies with no problems. That day I found a dog breeder that has some puppies for sale. They were born on the 20th of December. We decided that we were going to get one. We are getting a little boy. The boys have been soooo excited. They have seen a picture of him. They both agreed on Maxwell as a name for the puppy. We are going to take them to see a friend's Yorkie to see if either of the boys react to him. If they don't, we should be getting him in two weeks or so. Isn't he so cute???
