I was actually kidding about the drums. and yeah, he better NOT chew on my drums.
My thoughts were to wait on getting another dog for a while. My son was devastated by the passing of Mack. To the point of talking about suicide so he could be with him.
I love my wife and know her well enough that it was basically no use in putting up a fight.

We named him Hank and he's already fixed, like me

, and we got a bunch of toys and treats from the folks there.
He's sleeping on my shoes right now but I'll post a pic later.
