When I got Zoe over 7 years ago, I’d always wanted to have 2 dogs. I’ve obviously been pretty busy with life since then- a demanding job where I travel, getting married and traveling a ton, but I think H and I have decided it’s time to get our 2nd dog. The timing this fall will be great for us- H will be busy working long nights, so not much travel and I’ll have time to attend classes with a puppy. The puppy will hopefully be out of the puppy stage by the time we even *think* about having kids (urgh…did I just write about kids?!?! gak!!!). Zoe is getting older and I wanted to introduce a puppy before she was too old and a puppy would drive her too nuts.
So…..I pick up our puppy in Louisville in about 3.5 weeks. The puppies are 6 weeks old today & getting so big each week. I’m excited for the challenges of a new puppy and for H to have the joys and excitement of raising a puppy. Although he’s had dogs most of his life, he’s never had a real puppy. It should be interesting to see how we handle some of the fun of raising a “baby”.
I’m still tossing around name ideas & would love some help. I think I will have to wait to see the puppy before deciding on a name, but I’m tossing around: Sadie, Josi, Ellie, Allie. Any other suggestions?
GOOD NEWS OF THE DAY: Watch the puppies grow on their own blog, although it technically belongs to their beautiful mother Potter.
