Since then, searching <a href="http://petfinder.com/">Petfinder</a> together has become a daily ritual, and today we visited a <a href="http://www.petfinder.com/shelters/AL138.html">local animal shelter</a> with a couple of dogs to check out.<br /><br />If I had the room and the time, I would have brought all the dogs (and cats) home, but with a small house and unfenced yard, we let <a href="http://search.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=7575433">Lilly</a> capture our hearts. A 5 month-old beagle/chihuahua/rat terrier mix, she jumped into my arms and held on, wagging her tail and licking my face. She should fit in well with our cats <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/largeheartedboy/sets/72157594228674517/">Neko</a> and <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/largeheartedboy/sets/72157594228678523/">Rilo</a>, she got along well with the cats at the shelter.<br /><br />Now we&#39;re getting the house ready for her arrival tomorrow (she&#39;s being spayed today). <br /></div> <p style="clear:both;"> <a href="http://largeheartedboy.vox.com/library/post/the-new-arrival.html?_c=feed-rss-full#comments">Read and post comments</a> | <a href="http://www.vox.com/share/6a00c11413c67e819d00d10a7bdb148bfa?_c=feed-rss-full">Send to a friend</a> </p> dog dogs puppy puppies
