Introducing .......

I've been talking to Sherman and we decided today is the day.  Below is what Sherman asked me to bark to all of you. 
--Essex
Sherman Taking It Easy
Hello everydog, I decided to end the suspense today.  My name is Sherman and I've decided to come live with Essex and Dog Dad.  I am not and never will be Deacon, I will try to fill those large paw prints.  I will be my own dog and I will bring a smile to Dog Dad's face in my own way.  This is very easy to do when you are a puppy. 

I am sure there will be plenty of adventures and stories to tell.  Great Auntie Essex will teach me the way of the Collie.  My brudder will be going to live in North Carolina at a really great home.  We both feel very lucky and happy. 

My Brudder is Going to North Carolina
I have heard much about Angel Paws Dog Park and visits to Ohio.  I think that I'll fit right in.  I will be coming to Key West on 6 August.  Dog Dad has told me that he will be taking vacation to be with me the first couple weeks.  That is typical of my Dog Dad, taking paw-ternity leave to spend time to help ease me into my new home. 

I look forward to meeting all of you in cyber-paw-space, others at the dog park, and more still on my adventures.

Dog Speed,

Sherman

Dog Dads are really cool. You are going to enjoy life there. You don't have to replace anyone, you are going to find your own place in Dog Dad's heart.

Hello, Sherman, so nice to know you're looking forward to your new home. You're going to like it there. No one expects you to be another Deacon, least of all Dogdad. Just be yourself and you'll fit right in.

You're a really cute little fellow, Sherman. Sounds you are going to a wonderful home, especially with a Dog Dad that takes time off to ease your transition into your new home!! Just a couple of weeks to go!!

Way cool Sherman! Nice to meet you! You're going to have such a great time with Dog Dad and Great Aunt Essex!

Hey Shermee - you will definitely be your own dog with your own personality and dad dog will love you for just being you. A little bit of deacon will always be with you and we will remember him always. Let the new adventures begin.

Nice to meet you Sherman! You'll be going to live with your Aunt Essex and your brother, Dakota is going to come and live with me, Shiloh. I promise to take good care of him, show him the ropes and stuff. Me and Dakota have a little boy to help watch after and have super fun times with. I know you, Essex and your DogDad are going to have many exciting years ahead of you. (P.S. Go easy on the teething...we seem to be more cuddle worthy when we give the hoomans a break!)

Hello Sherman

I came across from Rottrover's blog to say hello and I am so glad I got here in time to add my welcome wishes.

Paw-ternity leave sounds like a great idea to help a new pup settle in.

I am sure you are going to have a great time with your new forever family.

I think you sounds like you have fallen on your paws with a great home.

Love and licks, Winnie
