Hello everyone, this is Trevor writing! We would like to introduce to you the newest member of the Ekanger family, his name is Indie! He is a 7 month old Cockapoo who's past time is sleeping and cuddling with Sara.
Sara and I have been talking about getting a dog now for several months and when presented with the opportunity to meet this little guy came, we jumped at it.
Here is the backstory on Indie - He was the biggest of his litter, and the lady who gave him to us says he looks like his dad. Previously she had given him to a family when he was a puppy, but unfortunately that family mistreated him. She went to go just check on how he was doing and found that they were keeping him in a little kennel all day and on that particular day she saw him he was being rained on. She convinced the family to give him back and said it took several days for him to warm up to people again.
When Sara and I first heard about him we were in the car driving back from an amazing weekend in South Dakota. As we were driving the conversation about getting a dog resurfaced. We both agreed we would love to get a puppy for this next season in NOLA. We had just come to the conclusion that a Cockapoo would make a great addition to our home. Suddenly Sara's phone lit up with a text message. The text was from a dear friend of ours who said "there is an add on Craigslist with a Cockapoo, I think you should check it out" , and so "reluctantly" we did! (insert sarcasm) The lady said he was potty trained and he was free to anyone willing to love him and give him a good home.
I don't know if the text message was a sign from God to get a dog, but the timing was uncanny. I know the next few months will be that of change, adjustment, and faith but we are so excited that this little doggy gets to be part of it too!
So when you are praying for the Ekangers don't forget about little Indie! He loves to cuddle, he likes to stick close to Sara and he is slowing warming up to the both of us. It is so fun to see his little personality come out!
We love you all, thanks for your prayers and support. We are looking forward to our move this coming Tuesday (April 30th) and even more excited for what God is going to do in New Orleans!
