We adopted Whiskey as a puppy during the pandemic. He has grown into a truly spoiled and ill behaved dog. When he is not picking fights with his sister and trying to escape from the backyard, he finds new ways to annoy Neal's mother by demanding treats, jumping on her bed, and lots of non-consensual kissing.

Lola spent the first 18 months of her life in a shelter and a foster home (she had a great foster dad). We adopted Lola in August 2023 and she quickly came out of her shell and became the sweetest dog in the world. She keeps Whiskey in line too.
