Our New Puppy

After our Parvo (if you don't already know the story, don't ask! It is FOREVER long!!) experience with the puppy we got from the Humane Society, we decided to get a puppy from a breeder. We have never had a dog, just a cat. I knew the time would come when we would get one and I knew THIS was the time. I was wanting to get a puppy that was going to be little and STAY little. Ya know the kind - a Yorkie, Shih Tzu, a MALTESE!!! Well, Glen has ALWAYS wanted a BIG dog. I had ALWAYS said no. But after seeing my "boss's" (She hates that word) Golden Retriever and heard what GREAT family pets they were, that is the direction we headed.

We got her a week and a half ago and she has already grown ALOT! We named her HARLEY. According to my dad Harley is a boy's name, but we don't care. All of our girls (children) have "boy" names, so we thought, "Why stop with the kids?" All of the kids are really doing well with her. Jude, our 2 and a half year old, has already learned to tell her ,"DOWN!" if she jumps, which is a HUGE improvement from the freaking out he usually does with any kind of dog. So this is our official introduction of the newest member of out family. Here's HARLEY!!!
