Our Family...


Rusty and I got married last July 2007. We aren't planning on having children for several years but for now a dog will be our practice until we are ready. We purchased Canyon 2 months ago, August 20th to be exact. He is a full-blood Chocolate lab. We found him in the newspaper and he was one of two puppies left. Like with the house situation when we found it online I insisted on calling the Realtor and in this situation I was the one who pursued to find out more about the dogs...registered? full-blood? What are the parents like? Any history of hip dysplasia? etc.....
Two months later, 10 bags of Purina One Puppy, vet visits to get "snip-snipped" and shots, countless bones, and torn up things all throughout the yard....and needless to say several holes dug....Oh...and we can't forget his cozy comforter fluff he decided to decorate the yard with...other than that he has been a blast. We try to take him on a walk every evening and some mornings I take him on a walk around our neighborhood. He has the sweetest personality but he is a little timid of strangers.

Bichon has been our baby for seven years! Ha, ha!! They are great practice because you can still sleep in on Saturday and go out of town. : )
