The area that I live in is a common spot for people to dump their kittens and puppies at because it's not in the middle of the city and some of the houses up the road are pretty nice. So, there's usually a bunch of stray cats, and every once in a while, I'll find a puppy or kitten around my house.
Long story short, a stray puppy followed my Papa over to my house when he went to patch up the roof. After finding out that it wasn't my cousin's (who keeps getting puppies) or the new neighbor's, the puppy's wellbeing was shoved on us as it always is with any stray.
Originally, we were going to take him to the pound today despite wanting to keep him because my mom is slightly allergic to dogs. She really can only stand a few breeds (like our Maltese) and only if they are bathed every 3-5 days. She also wasn't going to tell her boyfriend about the puppy because he would want to keep the dog. She didn't want to deal with being allergic to something in his house.
However, my mom is a giant sap. XDD I should have known the moment she texted me this morning telling me that we were going to name the puppy and find it a good home. She ended up telling her boyfriend (who immediately wanted the dog without even seeing a picture) because she didn't want to be selfish and her boyfriend would probably be the best home out of the people we know.
Sooo, with her already deviating from THE PLAN (TM), she decided we're going to keep the puppy in the house until we can give it to her bf either Thursday or Saturday (can't remember). I just get to watch it all day and wash it every single day to reduce her chance of reacting. We're also going to get to watch him when her boyfriend goes away for a weekend. >3 PUPPY.
Szen has already heard me gush about him, but he's super sweet and adorable. He's really playful. I put him in the shower with me to get all the flees and dirt off of him (OMG. SO MUCH FLEES), and he was so calm. He's a little whiny though, but most puppies are.
SO, MEET MAX THE CUTE PUPPY.

From this afternoon, before he was bathed. I was out there giving him water and something to bite on instead of my wrists and feet. 8D
Now he's just laying on top of one of the vents, chilling.
