Long story- short. Chris and Kate really want a dog. I say fine- how about after the baby gets a little bigger. Lots of Craigslist searches. Lots of emails to breeders. The bottom line- the dog they really want is just too expensive. Go to Albuquerque for spring break. Chris says hey lets look down here. He finds an Airdale breeder 4 hrs away. She's willing to work with us and has a perfect family dog. Oh fine. Wake up at 5 am, drive to Hatch, NM with Kate. Pick up an 8 month Airdale. We name him Hatch (which by the way is the green chile capital of the world) And on the way home Kate says while hugging Hatch "my heart is pumping with joy!"
