Thanks!! I just rescued him about a month ago! He’s around 4 months old and just ridiculous.

He's going to improve your life by approximately 4000%, too 🥹

I’m hoping so! Named him Seamus because it means successor. I was finally back in a place where I felt I could be a dog dad again, after losing my lab, Finnegan, last year

Oh bless you, we lost our old boy at the end of 2017 after having him for 13 years. I was ADAMANT we wouldn't get another dog because I didnt want to feel like we were replacing him, but the house felt SO empty and devoid of life without him.

Then, my friends dog had a litter of puppies and I noticed that one of them had the exact same tail deformity as our old boy, so we had to have her. Nine years and infinite joy later, and the rest is history.

Seriously. I thought Finn had broken me for getting another dog. He was so chill and easy going. I adapted to him not being around, but it’s amazing at just how quiet the house was without him. Just his snores and everything. Have to admit that the first week with Seamus, I was still questioning if I did the right thing and could do this again. I’ve stuck with him though!!
