A New Addition to the Family

While we wait for Avery, we thought what better way to pass the time than adopt this precious puppy! We haven't officially named her yet, and we won't be picking her up until we get back from the beach next weekend. Some names we're considering: Annie, Lucy, Daisy...


She is an 8 week old yellow lab.

Her story: The little girl in the photos saved up her allowance and when her mom went away for a weekend, her dad took her to buy the puppy. Now, they already have a one year old lab, so needless to say, mom wasn't too happy when she got home. So that's how we have come to take this puppy off their hands. That's what we get for browsing on Craigslist for a pet turtle.

Now, we don't have much of a track record when it comes to training dogs, so any input is welcomed!!! Good thing we are going on vacation, because it's going to be a little hectic when we get home!
So far, we have determined Preston is feeding the dog each morning, and Caden will be on pooper scooper patrol after school. We'll figure out the rest as we go along!

Very cute dog! Does this little girl get visitation rights?? I bet she is bummed.

Good luck with your puppy! You may want to join Dogster. There's plenty of help and guidance to be found in the Forums area.

Have you ever crate trained before? It's the only way to go!
