We got a puppy!
Meet Charlotte, our new puppy! She's a 6 week old Schnauzer.

"CC" for short in memory of our dog that passed "BB"

1. congrats!
I love schnauzers. Used to see a lot of them when I was young, but not so much anymore. A guy in my neighborhood has a giant schnauzer that's way cool.

2. Ava, Dye your hair dark

Maineiac is a nice guy I'm sure...

oh wait, you're too young for him. Know anyone with brunette hair that is willing to go to Maine? I've been kidnapped and I won't be set free unless a brunette is delivered to Maineiac in Bangor Maine.

8. for CC and for BB --
ONE MAN'S SPECIAL TRIBUTE TO A DOG

The one absolutely unselfish friend that
a man can have in this selfish world,
the one that never deserts him,
the one that never proves ungrateful
or treacherous, is his dog.

A man's dog stands by him in prosperity
and in poverty,
in health and in sickness.
He will sleep on the cold ground where
the wintery winds blow,
and the snow drives fiercely,
if only he may be near his master's
side. He will kiss the hand that has no
food to offer, he will lick the sores
and wounds that come in encounter with
the roughness of the world. He guards
the sleep of his Pauper master as if he
were a prince.

When all other friends desert,
he remains.
When riches take wings and reputation
falls to pieces, he is as constant in
his love as the sun in it's journey
through the heavens.
If misfortune drives the master forth
an outcast in the world, friendless
and homeless, the faithful dog asks
no higher privilege than that of
accompanying him to guard against
danger, to fight against his enemies.

And when the last scene of all comes,
and death takes the master in it's
embrace, and his body is laid away in
the cold ground, no matter if all other
friends pursue their way, there by the
graveside will the noble dog be found,
his head between his paws, his eyes sad,
but open in alert watchfulness,
faithful and true, even in death.


-From a speech given by
Former Senator George Graham Vest
of Missouri. Delivered in 1870 when he
was acting as a lawyer in a suit against
a man who had killed the dog of his
client. -- He won the case.

9. Awww.... Charlotte's a sweetie!
:loveya: :bounce: I had a schnauzer when I was a kid, and his name was Whiskers. My parents never got his ears cropped (we begged them not to), and his markings were a lot like Charlotte's. :) Whiskers was a character! We had him for a long time, and he was a great dog.

16. Charlotte will make a good friend for our other young pup
Tucker - she's a bigger dog, and an older puppy, so she's bigger but still young too:
