Alex is a Standard Poodle and was donated at 11 weeks old by the Ferguson family on September 10, 2006.

I drove with Molly and Nate to Dallas to meet the Fergusons and pick up Alex. They drove from Lubbock to Dallas and donated Alex, all free of charge to us.

We did fine on the trip home and Alex just sat there and was a little sweety.

By the second day he learned to "heel," "sit," and "stay."
