Uggghhhh, I caved! But then again, I knew I would. Somehow I just knew this was going to be the year they would beat me down. Let me introduce you to the newest member of our family... Roxy!
Miss Roxy-roo (as I call her) or just Rox (as the kiddos call her) is an 11mo old german shorthair pointer. Once we started looking into getting a dog I knew instantly that there was no way anyone in this family was going to convince me to get a puppy. No way, no how! For us (me) it had to be a young pup with some obedience training and boy do I fee like we hit the jackpot with this dog.
Housebroken, check. Kennel trained, check. Knows common commands, check. Lets my kids play all over her, check, check and check :-)
But wouldn't you know it, we get the dog last night and conveniently Scott started a 3-day work schedule today so now it's just me, the kids and this beautiful dog who has got to be freaked out about what's just happened to her in the last 24 hours. Thanks, hun!
Welcome home, Roxy!
