Zeus

Joe took this picture with our awesome new camera.  It pains me to say that I do not know how to take pictures this awesome and will have to be shown how.  But look how cute Zeus, the mali-shep is.  We found out that he is going home on Friday, and dude, I'm kind of bummed.  Granted, I hate him in the mornings for waking me up with crying and wailing, but by night time when he's less crazy and a lot of cute, I find him very enjoyable.

 
Of course, not everyone else has found him as enjoyable as I have.  He's a tough ass, though, and doesn't scare away easily (at least not permanently).  In fact, in his time here, he's become more well-rounded in my opinion.  He's now mostly potty trained and has learned how to roll with the bigger dogs (read: play well with others) - the process of which is shown in the two above pics.

Dang it, I love the damn dog, and I just hope I don't weenie out and cry when we give him back.  Um, I may go shop for going away presents tomorrow.  He's welcome here anytime (though preferably after he starts sleeping through the night consistently).  Yeah.
