Arrival Story:
My brother Bosco was lonely at home by himself, so my mommy and daddy called up my first owner to see if there were any puppies available. They were in luck! At that time I was still in the oven waiting to be born. My daddy came up to see me when I was born, I was able to meet my brother Bosco for the first time (It was love at first sight!). My daddy said that he picked me because I swiped at my brothers nose when he peeked into our basket (my other brothers were afraid, but I was not). Mommy and daddy picked me up a few weeks later (I was still hooked to my other moms milk), and took me home to my new family.

Bio:
I love to eat, I love my Uncles and Grandparents. Mommy and Daddy give me a bunch of love, I show my love by peeing in the bed (they seem to get really excited when I do that, I think I will show them love tonight). My big brother Bosco is fun to play with, he lets me hang from his neck and chew on his left over raw hides (he likes my new raw hides). I love to follow him when he barks at the people outside our fence, he is really tough! Did I say that I love to eat? I love to hear myself bark, it makes me feel like I am a big boy like my brother Bosco.
