Meet Gimli...

Say hello (or konnichiwa) to the new addition to our family! Gimli is an eight-month old, solid 50 pounds of muscle, English Bulldog. He came to our house from a family that could no longer take care of him. We were happy to give him a new home! We named him Gimli from Lord of the Rings, as both English Bulldogs and Lord of the Rings' dwarves are good over short distances, but not long. Right now Gimli is full of puppy energy and bulldog stubbornness, so he and I take a long (well, long if you have short legs like his)walk in the morning, then the three of us take another long walk after dinner. Keeps everyone happier. :) He's already fairly well trained, so now we're just working on dominance issues and learning not to chew on Brandon's computer power cord. Gimli is very affectionate and strangely enough, likes to stir his water with his paw. He fits in quite well with our family! :)
