We Are Matched By Canines!
It is official, we have a new dog joining our family. I will be picking him up late this afternoon. He’ll be sharing his adoption day with my mom’s birthday! He is currently being called Atwater, but he was a stray and has no attachment to the name. Atwater had kind of grown on me, but DH isn’t too fond of it. The top name in the running for him is now Brandon. I’d share a pic, but photo taking was prohibited when I visited yesterday so you’ll have to follow his link to see him for now. I might get a photo posted to my twitter account when we head for home.
Our current dog, Emma, is a Corgi/Chow/Lab mix and comes in a couple inches taller than Brandon.
In honor of Brandon’s homecoming today, if you can figure out the theme that inspired the naming of our dogs you’ll be entered to win 1 of 3 free copies of my Pyewacket sock knitting pattern. Make your entries in the comments below by Sunday, August 2nd. Only one entry per person please!
On Monday I’ll use the random number generator to choose the 3 winners.
Tweet the contest for a double entry, just tweet “RT: @fiberfool Enter to win 1 of 3 Pyewacket sock knitting patterns in honor of the new dog! http://bit.ly/dPr1U” Be sure to include your twitter name in your blog comment so I get your double entry recorded!
Now, go give your pets a scratch and cuddle!
