Well I am kind of behind on updating this, but here it goes!
March 24th we picked up FLD Elroy from Leader Dogs for the Blind. He was a precious sleepy little 8 lb baby when we got him. While it was sad to let Pongo go, it felt oh so good to be holding a little guy with the comforting smell of stinky puppy breath! Here are a few of our favorite pictures from the day we picked him up!

Melissa being handed Elroy for the very fist time! |
|
It was love at first sight! |
|
Daniel also fell in love with him instantly! |
|
Our little nugget |
|
Our dear friends Randy & Sue picked up their new pup Norma the same day we picked up Elroy. |
|
Loving the new addition to our family! |
|
And it's time for Millie to meet Elroy! She was a little skeptical at first, but quickly decided he was cute and that she wanted to play with him! |
|
Updated family photo! Millie is a proud big sister! |
|
Little guy was all tuckered out from the big day. |
|
And we quickly learned that he LOVES sleeping upside down in our arms like a little baby! |
It was very exciting to be starting the adventure of raising a puppy for Leader Dogs a second time! We had learned so much from raising Pongo and couldn't wait to teach Elroy the ways of a guide dog!
