Blue Tillman is a pretty hilarious name IMO

In future pics, he'll have the very pretty collar we got for him! It's purple! Right now though I'm trying to find Sterling's tags to get the little ring thingy because this tag we got him didn't come with something to attach it to the collar? So that's a challenge!

One sweet thing we learned about Blue while doing three meetings at the rescue is that he's got a whole fan club. I expect most rescue dogs get a bit of one, but he was with them for a while because he needed a special family. Fortunately he spent much of that with a foster but still very involved with them.

Everyone we met was like "I would die for Blue" and I mean -- hard same.

It turns out that, if you let him, Blue will help you unload your groceries! He was flying in and out of the trunk as M carried bags in.

Also a not-great pic of his adoption collar! We thought a pretty purple would be nice

We got him this pretty collar (pictured while M was out getting groceries--this was a reason to ask me for skritches!)

And a slightly darker purple harness. His leash is a beautiful jewel-teal. We were like "this dog deserves lovely colors."

when we have a warm enough day (hopefully not until March because -- that would be bad), I'll get a pic of his whole look. Right now though it all goes under the coat or a sweater on a warmer day

Someone is snuggling ME! And he smells of corn chips. I desperately want to go to bed but also this is magic.

He’s so sweet! He smells so good. Eye contact in first selfie.

also in the last year -- baby shark hours, monitoring the backyard, and crashed out after playing with his throwing squirrel.

Someone got a little cup of whipped cream AND 1/3 of this cookie!

@neoncoughh he's a very good boy and a huge dork and a real sweetie and he's snuggled up with my husband again!

@mikerush probably from Kansas City

@platypus He tells people Kansas City, but that's just where he hopped the train.

@metageeky thank you! He’s a real sweetie even if he’s not Sterling.

@platypus Fiona is certainly not Francie but I love her all the same, even her paranoid rantings about springs at 4am.
