Over spring break, we watched Baxter while he family vacationed in Florida. The boys loved having a dog in the house. Brennan was a great helper and usually had the leash while we were out together. He was even very helpful about taking Baxter out for a quick potty run in the front yard just before we left to go wherever our day took us.
Brennan asked for many pictures to be taken of him with Baxter. He told me all week that, "Baxter was the cutest dog ever!"
Tyler enjoyed the dog and woke up every morning saying, "woo, woo," his way of saying woof. He also liked Baxter's bed, which was a constant source of fun for him.
Tyler wanted to hold the leash too, and thankfully Baxter was very gentle with him.
Tyler kept saying, "hug," and trying to hug Baxter, but I think Tyler made Baxter a little nervous and Baxter would often try to get out of his embraces!
On the other hand, Baxter seemed to enjoy the attention he got from Brennan! Brennan was pretty sad to see the dog go, but we are seriously considering getting a dog later in the year, after Uncle Pete's wedding!

What a nice week for the boys and dog! Love the pic of Tyler in the bed!! haha
How fun! Do you have a specific breed in mind?
No specific breed. I'm thinking a shelter dog... hopefully a small - medium sized dog, young-ish, that is already housetrained!
