We Weren’t Looking to Adopt… Then Came Aldo

So… Calvin is no more. Meet Aldo Raine – the four-legged legend we accidentally adopted.

We were just supposed to foster him. One week. Maybe two. Help him adjust, show him a little love, and send him on his way to a forever home. Well… turns out we were the forever home all along.

I’m not even mad about it. This little dude came in hot with more attitude than I’ve seen in a long time. Full of energy, always getting into something, giving side-eyes like he’s judging your life choices – and I gotta admit, I respect that. The name Aldo Raine fits him perfectly. A little wild, a little fearless, and totally in charge (at least in his own mind).

He’s not just a dog – he’s a character. And somehow, he slid right into our lives like he’d been here the whole time.

So yeah, welcome to the crew, Aldo. You’ve officially been promoted from “temporary guest” to “forever pain in the butt.” And we wouldn’t have it any other way.

    OMG Aldo looks so much like our adoptee Teddy. He’s a Chihuahua Beagle mix we rescued almost 2 years ago.
