what’s better than owning one basset hound?
owning two.
after living with me on a custody basis and shuffling her back and forth, she is coming to live with jeromy and i permanently tomorrow. in preparation of having bacon full time, we adopted another basset hound yesterday. bacon has been used to living with other dogs and i didn’t want her to get lonely during the work week while jeromy and i are at work. the new dog is bacon’s age and looks/acts almost just like her. he was a stray and has been living in a foster home for months. he’s been called “buddy” but we’re thinking of changing his name to “turco”… as in marty turco from the dallas stars in case you’re not a hockey fan. he’s bright, loving, affectionate and mellow. we’re both happy to give him a good home and are tickled to get sweet bacon over here full time.

You really should have Eggs with your Bacon!

We were thinking of the name, “Eggs,” but I know that dogs respond better to two syllable names. Then, we had thought about “Eggo”… but for some reason, “Turco” just seems to be sticking right now.
I feel a little bad breaking tradition - my family has always had food names for dogs - but I think that it’s okay considering it’s in support of the Stars. Heh.
