Pete is a Pistol

For those of you that did not already know, Kevin and I got a new puppy a few weeks ago. As if we need more to do, right? He is a doll and has become the new entertainment in our lives. His name is Pete and he is a Boxer/Lab mix that we adopted from the Tulsa Boxer Rescue Foundation. We picked him up in Stroud on the same day that we got home from a trip to Chicago and he has been a trip since then. We really wanted a new puppy and when Kevin found Pete and his litter mates on a website he declared that we had to get one! Kevin came up with the name and it suits Pete very well. He is all black with a spot of white on his chest, his back feet, and right under his bottom lip. He looks most like a boxer and we are very anxious to see what he will look like when he gets bigger.
He gets along with Sophie quite well although it did take a little while for her to warm up to him and he seems to get along with my parents dog even better. We thought that it would be a good idea to get Sophie a freind now that she is older and especially because the baby will be here soon and will take up much of our attention. He is truly a daddy's puppy! I have never seen a dog become so excited about seeing someone as Pete gets when Kevin comes home from work. He loves to chase and pounce and will eat anything that he can get his teeth on.
I am so glad that he came to be with us and I am very excited that he will grow up with our baby! I will post a picture as soon as possible, unfortunately all the pictures that we have taken are on mom and dad's camera. I'll get one up soon!

Well, well, well...it's about time! How am I supposed to keep up without your blogs? Oh, ok, right, the telephone and the fact you live 4 blocks away and I saw you yesterday...but still.

You are right...Pete is a cutie patootie.

Poor Bailey is the only dog in the family that isn't black. It is reverse descrimination!
