WENDEL IS HOME!!!

We picked Wendel up from the airport last night!!! He was very stinky and scared. He didn't want to come out of his crate at first, but when he did he was a wild child! He wasn't following me like Mo Mo did when we first got him, and he was trying to run away. He was so stinky that Wesley had to keep the windows down the whole time that we went back to my parents' house! We went there to have dinner and let them meet Wendel. That went really well. First order of business there was to wash his stinky butt! It cut the smell a little bit, but there was still a lot left on him so we are just going to have to wash him everyday until the stink goes away. So we had dinner with my parents and their dogs, then went home to let the boys meet each other. They get along SO well! Mo Mo is really excited to have a brother. Wendel is a bit different that Mo Mo. He is a lot more possessive of food (as Mo Mo is not at all possessive of anything...except me!), he cries a lot more than Mo Mo ever has, and he doesn't follow you very well. I was so afraid that Wesley wasn't going to love him, but you just can't help loving this cutie!

This morning, we went to the vet's office at 8am. Dr. Reed Hall doesn't work on the weekend so I had to settle for someone else, which I wasn't to happy about but I figured it was worth a shot. The vet was visibly grossed out by Wendel which made me so frustrated. She said that he has to have eye ointment for the rest of his life, he has limited visibility in his big eye and no visibility in his small eye, and his big eye may have to be removed at some point. She said everything else is good. He was a very good boy at the vet and only barked when a big black dog came through the door that he really really wanted to play with. On the way home, we got new beds for the boys, a tag for Mr. Wendel, and some more heavy duty soap for the stinky boy! We got home and took naps because EVERYONE is tired!!
