OUR FUTURE PUPPY!

So many of you asked what kind of puppy we are getting. Honestly, we don't really know the exact breed. We just know that the mom is small..lol, but she is very cute! She had three boys and two girls, so we are getting one of the girls. We saw them for the first time last Saturday and I couldn't believe how tiny they were! I never thought I'd get that excited over an animal, but I think I like that fact that it will be with our kids from the beginning and it won't have any issues (like previous abuse or neglect). It will be used to being around kids, and it will just be playful and fun! I know there's a lot of work, and of course my daughter is saying what thousands of other kids say too. Like, "I'll feed it, I'll clean after it, I'll watch it.." Yah..we'll see! I just don't want it to freak out when we first get it because everyone is going to be fighting over who gets to hold it first, and for how long! Poor puppy will be shaking for days! LOL. Anyway..here is a picture my son took with his cell phone. Sorry for the blur, but you can make it out. Isn't she cute???? Well, I already thought of the name too! She is brown and white, so I thought of the name "Mocha." Isn't that perfect???

My cousin has a dog named Mocha, great name. I think a dog is better than cats, even though cats are supposed to be cleaner and self reliant.....I would rather have a dog.

That is a nice name...but I'm sure it's also a personal fave drink of yours ;) I love dogs and I'm glad you're getting one for your kids. I used to have this dream of owning a shelter for strays dogs, well more like a huge dog ranch :)

Goodness. She looks like Dott when she was a pup. Our Dott is a Chorgi (Corgi/Chihuahua/Doxie mix). Those marking definitely look Corgi-like!!! Dott took the Corgi look and the Chihuahua size... Weighs about 12 lbs. now at 2 1/2 years old.

Mocha is such a cute name... Love to find out what she is when you do! Linda from http://countrycorgis.blogspot.com/

Looks like our diesel when he was a puppy! Oh how I want another dog

Samantha said...

Awww, she's precious!

We just added a new puppy to our family the week after Christmas. I can't tell you how many times I have asked "what was I thinking?" We are dog lovers and even have a therapy dog ministry, but I just was not prepared for the "puppy stage" again. He chews everything and is so mischievious. The kids argue over who's going to clean up after him, who's turn it is to hold him. The list goes on.

I'm happy with my Cocker Spaniel who happens to be laying on my feet as I type. She is MY dog and is so precious to me.

look at that wee little thing!! We have had three litters of mini daschunds so I can totally relate to the tiny aspect. How exciting!
