WHO could resist this!?!


I love dogs. I grew up with dogs (Honey, Bj and then Bucky). Marathon Man and I had Bob and we have Rita, who's almost 15!. But for the past year or so I've been thinking about taking a break from dogs (after Rita goes - hard to even think about it)...right...
Yesterday we spent the afternoon with 6 Vizsla puppies (7.5 weeks old). One of them will be coming home with us in a couple of weeks (yikes!). It's been a long time since we've had a baby, of any kind, in our house. This is a huge decision that I've decided to embrace, not because I have to (Marathon Man and the girls were very persuasive) but because I want to.
Right now all we know is that we're getting a male (from a litter of 2 females and 4 males). I'm hoping that he'll be sweet like Bob was and smart like Rita is. Not that Bob wasn't smart - but the eating toilet paper off the roll thing always kept us guessing?
We're all very excited, especially Marathon Man - happy that there'll be some more testosterone in the house (always trying to level the playing field, lol!?!).

P.S. Rita, I'm sorry for turning your world upside down. We'll try and make 'the change' as smooth as possible? I've got your back Honey.

If puppies weren't this cute no one would ever put up with them. Good luck Karen. And GOOD LUCK Rita!
My boy Punch used to rip and eat toilet paper off the roll, too; we'd come home and find it trailing out of the bathroom and into the hallway. Now that's decorating!

They are some cute ... you could keep any one of them.
The girls look so comfortable with the puppies.
We look forward to meeting Will.
