Our new pup

After Brandy passed in January, 1 week after her 16th, we started looking for a new puppy. We tried a wonderful Golden rescue here in MN. RAGOM has many goldens, but we really wanted a puppy. Our kids have never had a puppy...Brandy was born before the 4 kids. So, we decided that even though we really wanted to rescue a fuzzbutt, we wanted to raise a pup.

So we found a breeder and visited her last weekend. OMG, 2 litters made for lots of pups and some beautiful Mommas. Great setup with horses and a big farmhouse. It was an absolute picture perfect farm with healthy animals of all kinds around. The horses looked happy and healthy and the dogs and pups all did also. The kids had a great time.

Do you think these two boys missed having a dog? :-)






A BIG mellow boy named Summit. We pick him up in 2 weeks. :-)

  • Your boys look so happy it brought tears to my eyes!! Looks like a match made in Heaven - congratulations!!!!
  • They are wonderful as a puppy and even better later as a friend.

  • Know how you feel, we lost our 16 year old in Feb. Looks like you have chosen a great looking pup, congrats. We are still in the process of looking for another true friend but not a puppy. Everyday I check the city pound and various rescue places, I know one day we will find a fit for us.

    Have fun and enjoy your new memeber of the family, I know two weeks will seem like a longtime to the kids. Hope that you continue to post more pictures when the big day arrives.
