We bought a dog. I know you're saying "Sara...a dog?" Okay, yes, I'm not a dog lover--I never really had a dog (except when I was super young), but I figure I don't have to love other dogs, but I do love mine--maybe as a whole I'll start liking other dogs too then? I don't know, but I really love our dog.
Her name is Tess. I was inspired by a fabulous tv series called McLeod's Daughters. It is an Australian Western Drama type show. I love it and it's been so fun to watch. Well, one of the main characters is Tess...and when we got our puppy, it just seemed to fit!
We were on our date-night last Saturday and we went by the Pedigree Shop in the Park Meadows Mall. I've been there before and nearly bought a basset hound puppy (it was so dang cute). Well, this time, I saw our little Tess, and she won me over (she's so dang cute too). We held her for quite a while and she was just a doll. I just did it! We got her! My kids have been longing for a pet (a real pet--not just fish) ever since we had to have our kitty find a new home about a year ago (Rory turned up allergic to cats). You should have seen their faces when we brought Tess in to meet them, they were over the moon.
Here are some pictures of Tess. She is a Puggle--a Pug/Beagle hybrid breed. She wont get too big--medium breed--, she only "moderately" sheds and it is short hair shedding, so not too bad (plus we already have our cool Dyson "Pet" all ready to go). She is really really sweet. We are doing some pretty strict training with a trainer...crate training her. Though she's have several house-potty-accidents, we still love her a lot. A great pet for our family and I can't wait until she understands where to put her potty stuff so she can be more free in the house.
Welcome Tess!

way cute!
WOW you are so brave! What a sweet puppy...your right she really is cute!
very sweet - we have a purebred Pug who is 13 and is just the sweetest (most spoiled) dog ever -- I've heard the Puggles are about the same! You'll shock yourself at how "in love" you fall.

Tess is so cute, Sara! And what a fun surprise to bring home for your kids!!
How fun! We miss our Toostie! I can just imagine how excited the kids were when you brought her home!
Wow Sara! You will love it - even thought he rough times!
Cute, cute, cute! I don't dare to have pets in my house, too much work & responsibility, but way to go! Samantha says "I like your dog", Sarah says "Your dog looks pretty"
Sara, Tess is adorable. Congratulations, nothing like a doggy to love on and they are so loyal!!
