We LOVE our dog!
Here are the pics you have been waiting for. The boys and I had a full week with VBS and getting the dog and visiting with cousins. But I know the dog was the high point of the week. So, here are the pics. For those of you who don't know my parents also have a black schnauzer Primrose. They wanted her to have puppies but have had trouble finding a "husband " ( as Lucas says). And I told the boys a LONG time ago, that maybe when Primrose had puppies we would get one. And unfortunately or fortunately depending on how you look at it, she never did. So, about 1 1/2-2yrs ago, I thought I could be a boy puppy that could be Primrose's "husband". And like I posted earlier, the lady that breeds the black schnauzers, didn't have a male that fit that qualification last year but did have this litter in April that would work. All that to say- we told the boys Thursday that we were going to look at a dog that maybe Primrose's "husband". We were going to check him out and see if we thought we was suitable.
Oh, did I mention Trevor and Tyler came along w/us. LOTS of BOYS! The husband of the breeder thought they were ALL mine. I set that straight really quick. So, the boys were surprised that the dog was a puppy.
Here is a pic to "show Papa what the dog looked like"- the boys still don't know he is theirs. Karla (the breeder) brought her whole family (including her 3 kids). So the boys are asking them "What's his name?" And her kids did a great job of not spoiling the surprise.
Oh its a present. . . . . . wonder what it is? HHHHHHMMMMMM????
A picture frame that says "I LOVE MY DOG!". Nice Mom. And they still don't understand that he is theirs.
But now they finally get it. After 5min of "but you said . . . .", they understand that the puppy is ours. Well, Lucas still was asking on Friday if he would come home with us. Since I was at my mom's for the week and I work all weekend, Tovi (the dog's name) is staying with my mom. So, I understand that that made it more confusing.
Since he is black, he is hard to see. But Noah has him on his lap during his first car ride.
On Friday, the boys wanted to take him to the park. We had to go early since we knew it was going to be HOT! He lasted about 20min, and then he was tuckered out!
The boys were trying to keep him in the shade. Eli is behind the tree.
There Eli is, running around with Tovi.
