oopsie!

Hey, remember last week when Josh and I had decided that having a puppy right now isn't the best idea?  And remember when we had looked at the litters ready for adoption end of Nov or Dec?  And remember when we said since we are actively trying to get pregnant that having a puppy and a baby would be too much work?  And remember when I was scared about Tucker's feelings toward a new puppy? Yeah, well we said screw all that and got our new puppy, Brody, this weekend! Sargent Nicholas Brody Cohen to be exact :) He is not a terrorist, nor does he play one on TV.

 

Honestly, look how handsome he is!  He's SO sweet it's unreal.  He's a silver lab which means his mom was a mix of chocolate and champagne, and his dad is actually red! At the breeder when he came out of his kennel area he ran up to Josh immediately, so he picked him up and put him on his back (to check his demeanor and if he would challenge Josh) "Munson" (that's what they had named him, I would have been fine keeping the name...GO DAWGS...but he's just more of a Brody anyway and Josh would NEVER allow one of his dogs to be named after a UGA legend ;) )went limp and just chilled out on his back.  Sign of a great dog! 

 

Then we went to Aunt Jenn's to meet his cousin Murphy.  They got along swimmingly!  And then it was bath time.  He smelled a LOT like puppy so he needed a delicious hylite bath.  Aunt Jenn helped give him a bath...bonding experience.

He's obviously having a hard time adjusting ;) He was such a good boy his first night.  He didn't whine at ALL in his crate, he didn't go potty in his crate all night AND he slept through the night!  In comparison to his big brother as a puppy, so far Brody is kicking Tuck's rear end! My poor Tuck whined all night for a solid week. Obviously he's perfectly fine now, as he hogs the entire bed.

 

Bro Co and Tuck are getting along fine so far.  They're still feeling each other out, but Tuck is being very gentile with him.  It's amazing how they just "know" what to do.  I don't have any pics of them together because they are really busy chasing balls and running into each other so doesn't make for a good still photo :) There will be MANY to come!  And Brody is obsessed with Owen.  He keeps running up to him and licking his face.  So far, my O Co hasn't swatted or hissed at him...I'm thinking they might be one big happy family eventually!  YAY!
