Six Months Old Today!

Post by aje_762 »

Hello DS Family,

We hit the half year milestone today. Four months ago we picked up our little bundle of fur. Sometimes not so affectionately referred to as the "pointy-eared devil puppy". He was a brindle blur, like a marble in a coffee can bouncing off the walls and gnawing on us... It got better. Through lots of patience, practice, delicious beer :pint: and "my God what have I done" moments we have a truly awesome addition to the family. It's definitely been a lifestyle change, but we wouldn't trade him for anything.

Looking forward to many years of adventure with you buddy!

Finally, it sleeps...

OMG. I was going to say my favorite pic was in the park but then I saw buggies then I saw ... then I saw ... they just kept getting better. What an awesome looking dog!!!

Where did you get him?

P.s. Glad the little devil got better. We had those moments too. We'd look at Lexi and say, Back to Michigan!!

Thanks everyone!

Michael- I was astonished that he weighed in at 65 pounds and 23" last Saturday.

Lexi- still a work in progress but leaps and bounds better. We got him out of Alpha K9 Kennels in South Carolina. Bobby Fuller was the only breeder who returned our calls. We talked to him about exactly the kind of puppy we wanted and he hit a home run with this placement. He's an extremely stable, social, healthy pup. The man knows his lines and we're very happy with our little guy.
