Why wait 9 months for a kid when you can adopt.....


.....yes, we adopted today. It's official, Elvis and Dibs now have a sister. Yes, another female joined our family today so I am not the only one. The little one has a ton of hair, golden color, and dark brown eyes. She's not a newbie, but a 2 year old. We may be entering the terrible twos (as they're called). From what we know she likes to chew and has thus far stuck to the bones. Outside, she is addicted to any ball she can find and will gladly bring it to you if you'll throw it for her.


We know you all were wanting us to add to our family so we did. A child is a big commitment so we thought a second yellow lab was the logical thing to do. Elvis and Dibs are adjusting well and learning that she's a "sister" not a "girlfriend." Elvis welcomed her a bit to much by licking her face and then licked her mouth, which she in response barked at him for.....we tried to explain you never go for a kiss on the first meeting.....especially when she's your sister, duh! However, we feel she will be a great companion for Elvis.


We have photos but I won't be able to upload them until tomorrow. For now, this is a picture from my phone.

Aww, congrats! That's great news. I don't have anything against puppies and kittens, but the adults often get overlooked in pet adoptions, so bonus points for you!
