Welcome Tucker!

Today we decided to add a new member of the family. What started as a joke between Elaine and I snowballed into us getting another dog. Welcome Tucker!

Yesterday at lunch, Elaine was looking in the paper and was saw that there were some Husky puppies for sale. She said how much she missed having Ashley around, and jokingly said she would call to find out how much. She did, and started to convince me that she wanted another dog. I know...the pictures above are not of a husky! I will explain.

Well today there was an ad in the paper for a Lab puppy that was cheaper than the husky. So we asked the kids, do you want a dog like Ashley (our former Husky) or a dog like Taylor (my parents dog). They said in unison...Taylor!

We made an appointment with the breeder. The dog that was advertised wasn't quite what we wanted. He was older and pretty hyper. He didn't take to us as well as the other family there, but there was another absolutely adorable puppy. His eyes are beautiful, and as soon as he was brought out to us, the kids eyes lit up. He bathed them with kisses. We brought him home and he is getting used to our house and huge yard.

Enjoy the pics! More information will be coming as Tuck grows up.
