AJ — Growing Up

Our Puppy AJ fits right in with my “super grow” kids! He was supposed to be a small-medium dog, a mix between a Beagle and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. But since he is from a rescue, you never know! The vet thinks he may have Pointer in him — and we agree! But big or small, we adore AJ.

Janice,

AJ is a beautiful dog. We are on hiatus from pets right now, but that face is enough to make me want to adopt one now.

I keep saying things like this, but it’s pics like that that ALMOST convince me that I should give into the rest of my family and agree to a puppy. Almost.

Hi there,
Just wondering if you still have AJ? Do you have any updated pics? We’re interested in a dog that looks quite a but like this pic you posted 2 years ago. The fosters think he’s a beagle spaniel mix, but aren’t certain? Just wondering how big he’s gotten, and what his temperament is like. He’s so so cute.

Thank you!
Christa Shores
