The latest addition

When we first moved into our new house and finished our yard we talked about getting a little play mate for Hooch. A few months ago one of Jamie's patients dog had 9 puppies (pure-bred bull mastiff puppies, my favorite!) But they were pretty expensive so we decided against it. Then we found out that Hooch tore both of his ACLs (that's right, BOTH back legs!) So another dog was out of the question while Hooch is going through his recovery (he had surgery about 2 1/2 weeks ago on one, once I figure out how to get pictures off of my phone I will post a pic of him after his surgery). Anyway, last Friday Jamie got a call from her patient who had the puppies and she said she wanted to give on to her! For free!! It turns out that they are moving, they only had two puppies left, and she just wanted to bless Jamie. Even though another dog is a lot of work Jamie convinced me and I just couldn't say no to a Mastiff Pup. We picked her up last Saturday, her name is Daisy (I wanted to name our next dog Turner but I just couldn't do that to a girl dog).



So now we have quite the hosehold. Especially with my parents visiting over Christmas, they brought their dog too. So we have three dogs, two cats, and 6 people running around the house. Fun fun!

Right now Daisy is about 14 weeks old and already weighs 35 lbs! She is small (relatively) but heavy. Her mom is 110 lbs and the dad was 150lbs, so she will probably end up around 120 or so. She is going to make Hooch look small (he is only 75 lbs these days). It will be fun to see them playing around with each other once he is all healed up. We will try to keep posting pics over the next couple of weeks so you all can watch how fast she grows.
