It's gonna be a three-dog night for me tonight. I just brought home Sammy, my new puppy. My vet's office manager called today and said they had an 8-month old puppy who had been seized by Animal Control because his stupid owners had left him in a tarp-covered crate in the back yard when they went away for a weekend.
Knowing that I've had 5 cockers, and spent enough to buy the veterinarian a boat or two, she called Animal Control and said I'd provide a wonderful home for him, and they said I could have him. So now I do!
Here he is--8 months old, almost 19 pounds, very sweet. Not sure what I've gotten myself into as it's been 13 years since I've had a puppy. (Sorry about the eyes--he won't slow down enough to get a better picture.)

We decided it was time to get a friend for our lovely Golden Fergus.
His new mate is called Gatsby and is a flat coated retriever.
They are getting along really well and keep us all amused with their antics. We are so happy with our new little guy.The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

PUPPIES, PUPPIES, PUPPIES!! Congratulations on your new babies. Sammy and Gatsby are sweetness in fur coats.
My advice---invest in plenty of bitter apple!
Please post plenty of photos so we can see them as they grow up.

Trekhawk---OMG, what a cutie! Thanks for sharing!
I still call my 2 now 1+ year olds "the kittens". It has been a great 1+year watching them grow and of course them being kittens.
And puppies are so darn cute!
Have fun w/ him!katluvr

Our rescue adopted kitty Suki is likely around 3 years old, but we call her 'baby' because she totally acts like a kitten- rampaging and 'wilding' around the house all day just like a little kitten, sleeping with her belly up, etc. Her personality is just baby-ish, that's all.
