The dog situation

Recently we found a new home for Sugar, and we were in the process of finding a new home for Riley. As one last ditch effort, we let Riley out of his outdoor kennel to wander around the yard as Wade played to see what would happen. Like a moth to a flame, Wade targeted Riley, who played along, but kept a few steps ahead of him the whole time. We groomed him and bathed him (Riley, not Wade) and decided to let him inside to hang out for the evening.

So far, so good. We've had no incidents (either with Wade's toys or Wade himself), but we keep a close eye on him especially when Wade decides he needs to hug, jump on, attack or relentlessly chase Riley around. Some days Riley makes Wade especially mad, because he likes to stick his nose into everything and Wade doesn't like that. It's pretty comical to hear Wade getting so annoyed! I guess he's just not used to a dog that acts like a dog- Babe is an exception, I'm pretty sure she's part human :)

In fact, it almost seems like Riley has taken a liking to Wade. Here's the whole crew playing in the sandbox:
