Carson's Birthday Dog

This year Carson's Uncle Shad and Aunt Julia decided to get him a new dog! He has been wanting a new dog for a really long time now and I keep putting him off since I do not like dogs.

So this is Grendall. He was Julia's brother's dog and he ended up moving and could not take his dog with him so they were looking for a good home for him and they thought of Carson. So Julia called me and told me she had the perfect birthday present for Carson. She also told me she wanted me to be really excited about it. I told her I would be, and then she told me that it was a dog, and I said "Oh heck no!" I felt bad because I totally shot her down. But you know me, I am always a sucker and give in, so look who ended up getting the dog! He is actually a really well behaved dog and knows some tricks which the kids love. But... if anyone knows how to cats and dogs to like each other...PLEASE let me know. We are having some issues with that!
