Will and I went to the local animal shelter to look at dogs today.  Now, I grew up with big dogs around the house, so I'm naturally drawn to big dogs.  I saw the cutest Australian Shepherd, a German Shepherd and Chow Chow mix, and a pure Chow Chow.  I love Chow Chows!  Their eyes are sooo adorable, and they look like huge bears!

We at first saw a cute Jack Russel Terrier mix whose markings reminded me of my old dog, Filow, so I really liked her.  But after talking to the animal shelter worker, describing our lifestyles and what not, she directed us to the most adorable and calm Terrier mix.  His name is Chaplin, and he is just sooo calm and cool.  When other dogs were barking, he didn't.  He also got along very well with other dogs, as he shared a kernel with a pit bull mix.  We played with him for a bit, and while he's totally cool with both chilling in the shade and playing fetch with you.  I swear, he's just tooooo cute to boot!

Here's a profile on the animal shelter website.  Can you guys please please please convince my hubby to adopt it?  Click the pix to enlarge.
