DJ

It has been a whole year, and we still miss you every day. I still hurt just as bad today as that horrible day a year ago. I am so sorry I couldn't help you.
We wish you were here, buddy.
We Love you so much DJ.

I got DJ my sophomore year of college, and he took care of me for eight and a half years. Through college, a variety of living situations, jobs, and friendships, he was there for me every day with that amazing personality that only Golden Retrievers seem to have. He had more attitude and touched more lives than any dog I've ever known. Just a few short weeks after my wedding, we lost him much too early. We miss him so, so much.

Dope...

My puppy is adorable, but he is not always the brightest bulb....

Busted!

But oh so cute!

Spoiled Much?

So, I was at the store today buying our new puppy a pool...
Yes, I admit it, I bought MY DOG a swimming pool. I do not have a swimming pool, but Cooper, a 4 month old Golden Retriever does. I do not think this is what the store had in mind when they decided to advertise and sell "kiddie pools," but whatever.
...Anyways, it got me to thinking about all of the things we do for our pets -toys, treats, an endless array of training tools, I could go on and on. My dogs have attended more ski trips than most Americans. What can I say, I love them, and if I can bring them along, I do.
My mom says she is scared for me to have children because of the way my dogs live -am I alone in this, or is this normal? Do you spoil your pets?

The Newest Member of Our Family - Cooper!

This is Cooper, he is our new Golden Retriever -at just nine weeks he is already almost 20 pounds, I'm thinking he may be part moose!

Introducing....

...This guy... He is a 9 week old Golden Retriever that I am picking up tomorrow to join our little family. Isn't he adorable?
I have no idea what his name will be, but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
I AM SO EXCITED!!!!

Shameless MommyBlogging

So, I know everyone is tired of hearing about the mommybloggers and their broods, but I just can't help myself.
Isn't she cute?
