Charlie

We have once again taken the plunge and fell victim to the cute and cuddly puppy that is now called Charlie. You may recall from a previous blog entry that I had talked about Nitro being the newest member of the family... He has since vanished into thin air. We have no idea where he went or what happened to him, but since we just couldn't resist the chance to have a wonderful pup in our family for very long... We have now adopted this fine specimen of the canine family. He is a lab / rotty mix, and has a simply excellent kind nature. At almost 3 months old, so far he has been a great addition to the family... of course there is that quite annoying thing he does at 6am every single morning, even on the days you might want to sleep in.. but I think for the most part he is going to be a great dog. So does Amy, who by the way chose the name "Charlie b. Barkin" a name that fits him to a tee. I told her that he kinda reminds me of Chris Farly in the movie "Beverly Hills Ninja". Without further adieu, a few pics to oooh and aaahhh over.

WE did not WANT a puppy. If you'll recall the conversation, kind sir, of the requirements for a new pet. I seem to recall a few specifics that Charlie does NOT meet.
1) MUST BE AN ADULT DOG-I am incapable of training a puppy and cannot stand taking the dog out every 5 minutes to sprinkle!
2) MUST BE A GOLDEN RETRIEVER- as they are known to be great family dogs.
3) MUST BE MALE-there's only room enough in this house for one GIRL! No, I WAS NOT going to say that other word.

Charlie is neither an adult or a Golden, however, he is male. So, you do get points for that. Unfortunately, I am a sucker for a cute little puppy --so he gets to stay...although, I am not happy about the 6am and sometimes 4am and 5am wake up calls.
