Puppy Fever



So, yeah, I have a major, overwhelming case of puppy fever. I think its because of all the extra time I've gotten to spend with my dog since we've been "snowed in"... Or maybe its baby fever expressing itself in a lesser, more financially viable form. Either way, now I'm going to show you some puppy pictures! HOORAY FOR PUPPIES!

My sweet Jack. Look how handsome that face is!

He's such a great dog! Australian Shepherds also come in miniatures! Can you believe it? All that fluff and cute smashed into a smaller package. Eeeeeeeeeeek!
Tom loves Basset Hounds, with their adorable floppy ears and short legs. To me, they all seem like they should be named Silas. Maybe next we'll get a big-eared, sad-eyed hound dog named Silas. 
 I imagine they sound like Copper from Fox and the Hound when they howl. Awe!

I have always liked large breed dogs because you can squeeze the crap out of them and they just love it and lick your face with giant tongues. I love the idea of having a dog that weighs more than I do. So I think I'd like to have a Great Dane like this freckled cutie! 
I don't know if you know this, but we used to have a German Shepherd named Flex. Tommy got him for his 18th birthday. Sadly, we lost Flex in the April 27th tornado. He was such a good dog. Look how tiny he was when we first brought him home!
He didn't stay that way for long!

And finally, there is always the trusty all-American canine sidekick: the Golden Retriever. Precious. 
Goldens and Aussies have very similar temperaments and I can just see them playing together so well! Jack needs a baby brother or sister! However, our 500 square foot apartment (along with Tommy) says otherwise. 

There are also times like tonight when Jackie is curled up quietly beside me and I think, "One is just right."

Hope you enjoyed the pup pictures! Have a lovely weekend!
