We got a PUPPY!

About two weeks ago, Joe calls me from work. Says he has a HUGE surprise for me! Turns out one of the guys he works with had just gotten a new puppy, and had too much going on in his life. so when him and joe were working, he asked him if we wanted a puppy.. And of course, we had been looking but everyone wants all kind of fees for small puppies. All this guy asked was that we gave him a good home. Of course we agreed! So here he is! our new lil guy!



He is a purebread chocolate cocker spaniel, 12 weeks old. he has blueish green eyes.. Its funny cuz they are "sad" eyes. we never know if hes happy unless we look at his tail (or rather nub, they dont have tails) and if its waggin, then yep hes happy! We named him booda.. he is really cute, and VERY smart! As of today, we are playing fetch! he has a little soccer ball and ive been throwing it and he goes and gets it, and brings it back. (until he gets tired, then he takes it and puts it under the couch) we are working on potty training. Ive been reading alot online about these dogs, and they are great apartment dogs.. they are very very smart. Originally bred to be bird dogs.. their tails are cut off when they are no older than two days old, (back when they were bird dogs, they cut the tail so it didn't get tangled in the underbrush.) so far, he is a VERY good dog! and so adorable!
