Welcoming Radar Home

We have a new addition to our family! His name is Radar and he is a Miniature Piebald Dachshund. We have not had a puppy in around almost 14years. You really forget how small and cuddly they are. Radar is just so sweet....so far. We got Radar from lady in Big Spring. Last Sunday we all loaded up, including Amos, to go pick up our little guy.  It is really hard to wait eight weeks to pick up your puppy. We were sent pictures about once a week. It was really fun to see how much he grew each week. Our biggest worry was how Amos would react. All he wanted to do was smell him at first. Now he just wants him to go away. Amos does not want to play....at all. He is just Mister Grumpy. The only perk for Amos to having a new puppy is having new toys....which he won't share.




 I hope he enjoys attention because he gets a lot!! The kids are all in love. Especially Luke who really does not like dogs. I guess it is different when it is yours.


Luke had to be the first to hold him.




Wade likes to hold him but does not like to be licked. Radar needs to remember that bit of info.



Just look at all the smiles.

I am so excited to see my kids so excited about our new little guy. I am glad they are getting a chance to have a puppy and get to bond with it. Dixie and Amos have always been my dogs and have not cared for kids. Now the kids will have a dog that they can love and loves them back.
