“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.”
-Charles Dickens (he must have had a puppy!)
Six weeks ago, we brought home this adorable little rascal. The kids were soooo excited to have Scout become the newest member of our family!
We had watched YouTube videos, checked out dog training books, and listened to advice from various dog owners regarding the best techniques for puppy-rearing. I felt pretty confident that we'd be able to have her whipped into shape in no time, and that it would be bliss. I should have realized that when people responded to my idea to keep a lab in our kitchen with an "Oh My!" that I would be in for more of a challenge!
Don't get me wrong, we have all taken a liking to Scout. However, she is a ton of work- something I wasn't anticipating. "Good thing you're cute!" has come out of my mouth more than once over the past several weeks!
Softest Fur Ever!
We've also taken on a new appreciation for the cats since getting a dog. Cats are very low maintenance compared to a rambunctious puppy.
We chose her out of a litter of ten. Both of her parents are black labs!
I wanted to become a dog breeder after seeing all of these adorable pups together. I've since come to my senses!
She can't quite jump up on the porch yet, but that day is coming!
Blue-eyed Baby!
Sweet Scout!
Many more Scout pictures to come...she's changing so quickly.
