So about a month ago Jay and I were laying in bed and he read a post to me about a male weimaraner who was hurt and laying outside of a community swimming pool on 4th Street. We are both big weim lovers because of our Ally Girl and hoped/assumed that the person who had posted about him had taken him home. Well two days later the post shows back up on Jay's newsfeed and after reading the comments he realizes that the weim is still out at the pool. I was getting a pedicure and Jay calls to tell me that he's going to pick the dog up and take him to the vet because they think his leg is broken. Jay got him loaded up and figured out that his leg wasn't broken--he wasn't walking because his paws were severely burned from walking on the hot asphalt. :( He ran him to Live Oak and had them check for a chip (no such luck) and asked what to do for his paws and them brought him home. Long story short--we've tried to re-home him twice but it hasn't worked out. He is a PERFECT angel at our house but nowhere else! We have called him several names and he only answers to Cooper. We have both agreed that this is insane and that we're not keeping a 75lb male weim with a new baby due in 2 months but he seems to be staying for now. He's potty trained, knows commands and sleeps all night in the dog room with Ally and Stella. He is sweet to the other dogs and they seem to like him and he is OBSESSED with me. He's my shadow boy! We're probably getting too attached but we'll just see what happens. Dogs must be similar to children, once you have 3...what's one more?
Here are a few pictures of the new guy in our lives.
Meet Cooper Jack!
Playing ball
Being a total lover boy
Loves going outside and doesn't scratch or jump like our bad weim girl.
These two are my shadows.
Loves to play.
I guess we'll see where this goes. We both want him but it seems a little nuts given the life change we're about to experience.
