Introducing... SADIE!

That's right, our family has grown again! Last Wednesday we adopted an absolutely adorable little hound mix named Sadie. She is super sweet and her favorite thing in the whole world is to cuddle. She is two years old, housetrained, and is now sleeping through the night (the first two nights were a little tough). She does have some separation anxiety and is always thrilled to see us in the morning or if we've been gone somewhere. So far she has only had one accident in the house (when we were gone) and chewed up one plastic bag (also while we were gone). She knows "sit" fairly well, has learned "on your bed" (the nighttime instruction!) and we are working on "come," "no," and "off." Here are some pictures of our beautiful little girl:

The side view - she's a little girl (only about 35lbs.)!

Isn't that face too cute?!

We sometimes let her up on the couch, and she loves to put her head on the pillows!

She loves attention and she loves Luke... she's good at giving kisses!

One of her favorite places - her bed in the corner of the kitchen.

She keeps us laughing, trying to bury a chew toy on her bed by pushing at the bed with her nose, stalking the coffee table after Luke pushed it with his foot and it made a noise, and getting so excited her whole body just wriggles and shakes when we get home!

She's also been sneezing and coughing quite a bit the past two days, so if anyone has any thoughts on why or helpful remedies, they'd be much appreciated! We have a physical scheduled in two weeks, but may try and move it up to get the hacking checked out. She's not perfect, but she sure is a cutie and we are enjoying being dog owners. :)
