George The Eskimo

Come on without
Come on within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty George

Lyrics (modified) by Bob Dylan capture the latest addition to Home Sweet Hanna - The Dogloo.

We looked around for the best price on a dog house and ended up ordering a Petmate model from The O (say it with a Maryland Accent - haha).... you know I'm a fan of that $2.95 or cheaper shipping especially for cumbersome or heavy items like the rugs we ordered or in this case...a 32 lb doghouse....

Our doggie igloo arrived yesterday and the jolly new owner helped me with assembly....well sort of....George took it upon himself to steal the screws and take a little lap around the yard....gotta love that irresistible guilty face in the assembly timeline pictures below...
It's here!
Screw Thief!
Catch Me If You Can
Guilty George...good thing those puppy dog eyes get you out of anything!
Back to the snap and screw assembly...
Time to explore my new hangout
Success!

Meet George Hanna

Introducing the latest member of the Hanna House.....12lbs 4ozs...it's GEORGE

He was born on November 1, 2010 at Break of Dawn Kennel/Breeder here in Richmond; his mother is named River and his father is Super....see below for pics...
George's Mom - River
George's Father - Super
Brian and I picked him up on Sunday December 19th at 11AM.  It was a freezing day when we were introduced to two sleepy male black lab puppies.  We asked the breeder to help us find a low drive (less hyper) dog - from the start, it was clear that one of the puppies was more calm than the other (known as Wags - his tail did exactly that!).  While at Break of Dawn we played and took pictures in front of the random outdoor lighthouse, then it was the first car ride home to the Hanna House.

Such a sweet Christmas Gift
Just got home - think I'll hang here between the shoes
Baby Gates have been set up in the Hanna House so George has limits
Check out those huge paws - he is going to be a big boy
Life with George is wonderful - we get a little less sleep and are exposed to the elements for frequent bathroom trips - but all is all we got a good Dog!
