Now I know what you might be thinking. "New additions" might mean something about a bun in the oven, no? Actually, not this time. What we have on our hands here is an odd couple. Now you're probably thinking, "Neil Simon, that was a good play," and you'd be right. But we're not talking plays here. We're talking dogs.
Two of them, to be exact. One is an adorable little boy by the name of Pancho. He's your standard, less than ten pound, not-so-bug-eyed Chihuahua with the prance of a man who's in charge (once he's comfortable with his surroundings, mind you). The other is a beautiful girl, Jojo, a 40ish pound faint reddish brown with white chested American Pit Bull Terrier with the sweetest disposition. They were found together roaming the streets of Oakland, already a pack of their own. So they were kept together in the kennel and advertised as a pair at the Oakland Animal Services as they hoped to sent them out together so they could remain a pack. If you read the ad at the beginning of this paragraph you can clearly see that we changed their names. We were not about to use one of our mothers' names for our dog. 8o)
I'm certain you'll have more pictures and posts regarding our new additions scattered throughout our blog from time to time, but I wanted to make sure y'all knew what was up with us! Jess says that there are cuter pictures to come...but for the time being, these are our new dogs, Jojo and Pancho:

My loving husband has been researching pit bulls on the internet. He as become quiet proficient at internet research. Here's a site he likes on the breed http://www.bulldogbreeds.com/americanpitbullterrier.html
It's very interesting the bad press they have received. It seems that they are intelligent and loyal and excellent, loving, and protective breeds. The dogs in the old RCA and Buster Brown ads (which you guys are way too young to remember) were Pit Bulls.
Just thought you might like to know.
That's a great site! That's the site that convinced me that Jojo was an American Pit Bull Terrier. And I remember Buster Brown, just not in-the-moment. 8o)
Also, Petey from "Our Gang" was supposed to be a Pit Bull.
Good dogs. Mostly protective of their owners, not as territorial as other breeds.
