Introducing Philip J. Fry

When a little over  a week ago we said goodbye to our beloved Norbert my husband and I knew we wanted to add another dog to our family.  We also knew we wanted it to a be a pug, of all the breeds they best match our life style and I knew a pug puppy would be a good fit in our home.   I had expected to have to wait a bit, but we found a Pug Dog Club of America breeder in Staten Island, the very same borough we found Norbert in 12 years ago, who had a male fawn puppy.  We drove out to see him and meet his parents.  I knew if we made the trip we would be bringing him home, and of course that is how it worked out.     He is the smallest pug I've seen, smaller at 15 weeks then Weasley was at 9.   The vet looked him over though and says he looks good which is a relief because he just has too  be healthy because his dad and I are already over the moon!  He is just what we needed to heal our broken hearts, this is perhaps the cuddliest puppy I have ever encountered.    We have named him Philip J. Fry.  If you ever watched show Futurama you may remember that Fry is a NYC pizza delivery boy who gets accidently frozen in the year 2000 and defrosts in the year 3000.   Here is a short you tube video of the character (don't expect to understand if you've never seen the show).

Anyway here is our little small Fry, like his namesake he seems like a very sweet and silly New Yorker.

We are determined to honor Norbert's memory by giving Fry the best life possible.  I can't wait until Spring when we can take Fry to all of Norbert's favorite places.
