Our New Puppy




So for the last month or so I have been dying to get a puppy. I've been doing training to become a professional dog trainer and its very difficult to practice on a dog thats not yours. So I have been trying to convince Jake to let me get a dog. We decided that it would be best for Cambry, the cats and the dog to get one as a puppy instead of a full grown one. The cats don't really like dogs much, so it would be easier for them to adjust if the dog starts out smaller than them. And it would be better for Cambry and the dog if its a puppy, so that way it can grow up learning to deal with Cambry pulling on him. And she can have a buddy. So I finally talked him into it, and we found a lady on Ksl that was giving away free Border Collie and Chocolate Labrador puppies. So we went and picked one up today! She is seven weeks old and is the runt of the litter. She is so adorable and tiny. She has more of the border collie markings so far, but they tend to change after they lose their puppy fur. So maybe she'll be a chocolate collie! She is the sweetest thing ever. She loves to cuddle and play, but she gets worn out easily. Its so cute when she just plopps down where she's at and just goes to sleep! The reason I keep calling it "She" is because we haven't come up with a name yet. We are trying to come up with a cool name. Either one that is really unique or one that just fits perfect to her personality/breed. We were thinking like "Juno." But we haven't decided yet. So if you guys have any ideas please let me know!! I'm so excited to have my puppy now.
