I feel introductions are in order!! Everyone needs to meet our animals...
Tucker
He was our first dog, in fact, we are coming up on his 1 year "birthday"- the day we adopted him (April 28th). He is a Beagle (then named "Lucky") that we adopted from the Williamson County Humane Society. He is an older guy- we think about 7 years old. He takes life one step (or nap) at a time and truly stops to smell the roses... or anything else his Hound nose finds interesting. Jason grew up with having dogs, however, this was my first. Tucker was the perfect pace for a new dog owner.
Gypsy & Zoe
After a heartbreaking loss of my 10-year old cat, Puck, our house just wasn't the same without a cat running around. Jason may tell you that he thought it was a GOOD change, but I felt something missing. I had my heart set on a Tortoise cat or "Tortie" because they looked nothing like my precious Puck. Last September, we responded to an ad on Craigslist for a 5 month old Tortie. When we got there, she actually had TWO of them (sisters). The second one had lost an eye (we don't know how) as a young kitten so she hadn't advertised her thinking no one would want her. Well, of course, she is the one I fell in love with. We loaded her up and she was terrified. We got out to the car and Jason KNEW I wanted both of them... the car had barely moved when he put it into park and let me go claim the other one! So, we now have Zoe (our one-eyed sneak) and Gypsy (the bossy purr machine). They are very rarely ever apart from each other, so I know we made the right decision keeping them together.
Cheyenne
She is our most recent (and hopefully last) addition. We NEVER planned on having two dogs so I take ALL the blame for this one!! I began to think that Tucker might like a friend. I also knew that Tucker didn't have quite the activity level that Jason had hoped for in a dog. :o) So, once again... Craigslist came through. Cheyenne (then named "Tish") was a stray that had walked up to the house of a nice couple. We think she is almost 2 years old and a Hound/Heeler mix. They took her in, got her healthy and happy, however they had a house full of ferrets and cats already, so they didn't plan on keeping her. Plus, she is a very active dog and needed more attention than they could give her. We took one look at her and loved her. She got along with Tucker well and Jason was smitten right away. Finally a dog for him to wrestle and play with!

Jason is a stray that I found over 5 years ago at the University Bowling Center in San Antonio. :o)
