Puppy we got in May. She's about 10 weeks old in this picture. She's a black lab mix we got from a shelter. She loves the kids and can be a holy terror at times, in other words, a pupppy. We named her Cheerio but I call her Lucy at times-short for Lucifer the devil dog. The kids are pretty quick to correct me.
She's fun though.
My wife never had a pet growing up and married into a dog family. My whole family has numerous dogs. I had a dog when we were married so it was quite an adjustment for her. We had to put my other dog down a couple of years ago at a young age of 8 due to lung cancer.
The kids and, suprisingly, my wife were bugging me about getting another dog throughout the beginning of the year and so we finally made the leap. I always told my wife that you haven't lived until you've raised a puppy.
