Introducing Finn McIntosh!
But first, a little backstory…
We had a wonderful dog from the time Jake was 4 until he was in college – over 14 years. Hunter was truly one of the best dogs ever. I was heartbroken when it was time for him to run across the Rainbow Bridge. I told myself, “No more pets.” It was devastating and I did not want to put my heart through that again, everrrrr…
After several years of returning to a pet-free home and lifestyle, I scrolled through Facebook one night and saw a post by a dear friend of mine who fosters dogs until they can be permanently placed. Lo and behold, she had taken on a momma dog and her litter of TEN!
Once Pete saw their little faces, it was game over. We did pray and seriously consider all the things that inviting another little four legged kid into our house would mean: limited travel, me continuing to work solely from home, training a puppy “from scratch” (I am OCD when it comes to not letting a dog tear up our house and ensuring my position of “Alpha Dog” when Pete is away flying. 😉 And, the EXPENSE – my goodness, the four-legged ones are just as expensive as the two-legged ones!
We prayed that God would show us the perfect one for our family, and here he is – FINN! You’ll be seeing a lot of him here on mtnests.com – we’ll be featuring a lot of pet-focused information straight from the experts!
