Adding To Our Family!

We have both been wanting a dog for a little while now, and took the opportunity of the move to be able to have one. Meet Snyder!

He is a German Shorthaird pointer who is about a year old. So we choose his adoption date as his birthday! (April 21, 2009) He went to the vet and checked out all healthy! So far he has adapted well. He just needs to work on not following us EVERYWHERE we go in the house. I'm sure that will cure over time.

For being a puppy he sure does sleep A LOT. His mom is nice enough to wake up early and take him on a run before work, and dad finishes up the excercise with a run in the afternoon. Sometimes the family will even take an evening walk together.

He is a smart little guy, and we think we got pretty lucky with finding him. His story was he was found as a stray in Oregon and the man who found him didn't have any time for him and kept him cooped up all the time. Despite all those puppy-dog looks he gives us for not letting him be outside, he's quite the lover and we think he will have a wonderful life as part of our family!!
