We got a new puppy! His name is Gustav (after composers Mahler and Holst). He is a 13-week-old labradoodle and I think he's adorable. He cried/barked/howled most of last night in his crate. We felt validated in our name choice when we remembered that back in college the trombone players all bought rubber chickens to take on band trips and make them squawk loudly when everyone else was sleeping on the bus. One of the rubber chickens was named Gustav, and our dog sounded just like a rubber chicken at several points during the night. We are hoping he does better tonight or at least soon. We took these pictures today in our yard.
What a darling little one! and i love the story of his name ... :)
