duckwithoneleg Rose Garden "Be just who you're made to be, Poppa is so mighty pleased with thee." -Danielsons Join Date: Oct 2009 Location: NC Posts: 6,091	Coming out: We're getting a puppy (PICS ::grin::) (Edit: MORE pics, post 8 :giggle) Here is my feeeeeelingsy disclaimer: Okay, so. Please don't throw things at me? I feel a little bit like judging myself because I feel like we failed Pantuke. And our cat recently went missing. It's been over two weeks now. I really don't think she's coming back . So I am feeling like the worst pet owner EVER We have decided to keep Mr. Fattypants (said with utmost endearment - oh, that's our other kitty.) inside from now on. 'Cause, yeah. Anyway without going into all sorts of boring detail, I have reasons for a puppy. REASONS! So many of them. And having spent months doing dog research and puppy research and breed research, am feeling really hopeful and confident about this choice. So I really just want this to be a puppy celebratory/journey thread His name is Mr. Bultitude (ten thousand points to anyone who catches the reference ). He is 4 1/2 weeks old. He is coming home in 6 1/2 or 7 weeks so he can stay with his momma and siblings until he is 12 weeks old . Oh, and he's a Saint Bernard __________________ It is me and the hubbyman The toddler duck Welcoming all prayers for a sticky duckling this time At the end of time, I will kiss you all over your face.
