Card and a Puppy

 Todays Christmas Card was hand delivered....no postage needed. 



We only got one card yesterday.

Andy, Jen, Noah and Adam

There has been an empty spot in the household since Miss Miney died last January.  Little Elvis has been an only dog....and he is getting older.   A new puppy would not replace Miss Miney because that would be impossible.  Little Elvis would have a companion and show the puppy the ropes...and there is enough love for animals in the household to share with a new puppy. 

Preparations were made. 

Meet Sadie the Golden Retriever.  Sadie is eight weeks old.  I am certain you will hear more about her as time goes on. 

Jen and Sadie
Sadie was the runt of the litter, she seems to be well adjusted to people, dogs and cats.   Jen said that Sadie wagged her tail and started to chew on her shoes when they met for the first time...so it was meant to be.

  1. Puppies mean lots of love. They are just bundles of love. I have enjoyed our granddaughter's puppies, Thomas and Gizmo. They are part of the family. Every time we have a family get together they come, too.

  3. Be Still My Heart! Love it. Any time there is a new young pup or pet I just get all mushy inside. Hmmm.
    For so many years I had two dogs [large mix dogs] and I adored hugging them all of the time.

    Thank you for posting this, it lifts up my heart today!

  8. She is a beautiful puppy ~ sure to bring happiness and maybe a little dismay now and then until she learns the rules of the house.

  16. Another new puppy! It's the season for puppies. Sadie is SO cute. I love golden retrievers as they are so loving and family oriented. You're going to have a wonderful, wonderful several months of helping to train the puppy. Lucky you!

  17. Sadie is indeed adorable!! GD Kate has an aged dog named Sadie who from time to time appears to be going downhill fast. So far she has rallied each time.

  18. That is the Only way to replace a passing dog. Dogs leave a HUGE hole in the family... and there is no way to patch it up unless you find someone to fill the void. Happy Puppy! Many years to come!

  20. Sadie is so adorable. Bet Little Elvis will like her company. It has taken 6 months for Eli to accept Ellie but it finally happened. Golden Retrievers are such good dogs.

Thank you for all the time you take to make this blog...it is very appreciated!

  24. No dog can ever replace another, but I'm sure all of them - Little Elvis included - are glad to have another dog in the house. Hello, Sadie. Pretty name, by the way.
