Holly

Our biggest news of the year is that we got a dog. If you know me, I don't really "do" the whole dog deal. I was totally against it. I thought I would probably NEVER get a dog! But then of course I married a major animal lover and wa-bam, we have a dog. I am just so nice :) Needless to say I honestly love our little puppy named Holly. Holly is a black lab retriever mix (someone told me that she has some pit bull in her, we don't know though). She is so fun and teaches us some responsibility and lots of patients. 
Paul is the fantastic trainer and has already taught her to sit, shake with both paws, speak, lay down, go to jail (kennel) and army crawl is in what he is works right now. 
We adopted her from and animal shelter that is in PetsMart when she was 8 weeks, she had just gotten spayed and had hernia surgery 3 days before we got her. Now she is 13 weeks. She has been to see the Vet 2 times, each time she was very good and stood very still! Everyone she meets thinks she is the cutest thing ever (and their right) and automatically Holly thinks she has a new best friend. 

 We are still working on potty training her. I just don't think she quite knows how to tell us she needs to go outside. Although, she is doing pretty good!
She is our sweet girl. Loves to cuddle and play and chew on her bone and steal our socks! 

WE LOVE OUR HOLLY GIRL :)
