Introducing Dutch

For as long as Jesse and I have talked about the future and family, that picture has included a dog. We finally have a canine member of the family. After packing up from camping, we drove to the breeder to pick up our puppy. A few hours later, we settled on the name "Dutch." Jesse and I originally met in New Zealand but reunited in Dutch Harbor, Alaska a few weeks later. That is the origin of Dutch's name.

Playmates already.

Elliott is excited to have a new friend at home.

Dutch took a drink out of Elliott's pool.

Elliott quickly followed his example. Quite entertaining!

He really liked sleeping on our shoes and bags during the first few days at home.
