I know, I know! I owe you all an explanation! Where is this new puppy you keep blathering on about? Well, he is coming, I swear!! However there has been a small delay and it looks like it will be a few more days before our family grows by one more. For now, it felt appropriate to throw it back to our first fur baby.
This little black lab owned our hearts for almost 13 years, how lucky are we. Is there anything better than a dog that loves you with their whole heart? Imagine if everyone was as happy to see you as your dog when you walk in the door? Pups may be a lot of work, but oh my goodness the love they give!! It’s decided, I am forever a dog person.
Consider yourself warned; many more puppy posts to come!
PS The cat is pretty great too!

Darlene Schuller says
aww.. such a sweet face. I know no pet replaces another, but they can help fill a huge hole a little… and lift you up with such sweet love!

I don’t mind cats but I love dogs!

Awww. So adorable. I love almost all animals but cats are my jam. I still say hello to any dog I meet on the street though. Funny, my cat is very dog-like (he is a Somali FYI) and he is permanently attached to my hubby. If he doesn’t get pets when my hubby gets home he cries like a dog would whimper. So funny!
Judy Cowan says
Can’t wait to see the pics of your new addition, hopefully you get to pick him up soon!

I am a big lover of dogs, but with a family of 4 living in a townhouse this is very practical at this point in time.
Suzie M says

It must be so hard to wait

Love the photos! Beautiful lab! I know it’s heartbreaking to loose a pet who gives you so much and expects little in return. I’ve been there and it’s still hurts.
Deborah Pucci says
Sweet photos. Can’t wait for you to get your new guy!
Holly says
There is nothing like a dogs love! Completely unconditional and only wants love in return. I’m lucky to have cats that think they’re puppies, lol. As I can’t have a dog at the moment due to lack of room. Lovely photos and beautiful post! Can’t wait to see all the photos of your new puppy!
Debbie Bashford says
it’s like a private parade every time I walk into the house, even if I have only walked to the end of the driveway to check the mail box
Maureen Anderson says
How on earth do you get them to pose like that. LOL. Beautiful animals.

We lost our beloved dog many years ago and we still miss him, we decided not to get another dog as we like to travel so now have a beautiful cat, not quite the same as having a dog but boy does she require a lot of attention, lol!
