The Puppies

I just had to put our Angels, Huck and Bud on here. These are our babies, for right now anyways! Huck is a 160 pound Great Dane and Bud is a 100 pound Black Lab. Allan has had Bud for about 8 years now and Huck has only been with us for about 1 1/2 years. They are both full of life and energy, which is not shown well by the picture to the left. Huck is always getting hurt and we have probably spent more on him at the Vet's office in just one year than we have on doctor's visits for me and Allan combined. Bud is probably close to being the smartest dog in the world. He has taught Huck everything he knows, but Huck sometimes chooses not to listen. Huck is scared of everything! He avoids a whole room all together if there is something in there that he doesn't like. Such as the vacuum, a cooler, a balloon, a box, or even just a bug on the wall. Allan and I now refer to these things as "Monsters". And boy, are there a lot of monsters in our house that we never knew about. Thank goodness we have Huck to point them out for us. Because Allan is working on renovating our hall bathroom, Huck has decided that any tools or materials left in the hallway are grounds for him not even attempting to walk down the hall. We literally have to clear a path for Sir Huck in order to get him to go outside and potty or eat. Huck also loves to sit on things. He sits on the couch and watches TV or on our laps, but his favorite place to sit is right on Bud's head. He will walk up to Bud, turn around, back up, and plop down right on Bud's face. It really is hilarious, but I can only imagine what is running through Bud's head right at that moment of terror! I guess I could talk about them for hours, but I will wait until another day.
