Oh you naughtly boy. Had us going there.

Beautiful animals that should produce beautiful offsprings.

I agree that bloodlines do make a difference in a lot of cases. I did once own a Boxer and an Irish Setter. Both were dumb as a box of rocks and neither could be trained. Two Dalmations - one purebreed and one mixed. The mixed ran circles around the purebreed championship line dog in the ease of training. Go figure. I now have a purebreed lab. Wonderful and smart to boot. His only problem is he is afraid of water. LOL Another - go figure thing.

Congatulations! I am glad you chose a female dog. We insist on female dogs, because males pee on everything.
When my DD was young and I was still with her dad, we had a male golden retriever. Being an avid gardener and having that self sufficient streak, I of course tried to grow as many vegies as possible. Well this dog really liked one of the broccoli plants and watered it doggie style on a regular basis. This plant obviously appreciated all the attention and grew to be huge, compared to the ones I was watering.
One day I sent hubby out to pick some broccoli for dinner and he came back in with a nice big bunch. So I asked him which ones he picked, he was surprised that I cared and told me he picked the biggest ones. DD knew why I hadn't picked them, but DH was not aware. Once I explained it to him, he could not get himself to eat any broccoli for a long time.

After I posted, I went into canning mode. The last canning of the year, and the sauce is boss till late next summer.

It was nothing less than a h-e double tooth pics of a long shot and I only lost two of 43 quarts.

Like all of you, I also treat my animals like family members. Although, in my neck of the woods, which seems like the landscape of death canyon, I would like to have another child. DW had DD before we met, and I had DS before we met.

It's almost like the brady bunch with a grizzly adams theme song. Just doesn't fit, although she cooked taters in a pan, and I cooked mine in a cast iron skillet. She noted how much better mine tasted. I also added some spices.

I consider struggles like stepping stones, growing together in life. It does make me sad when I think about being a Dad again, never to have that time to spend with a baby. Its all business, but personally, its all about business, but with a family in mind. So it is what it is, I hate being on the losing team of choices in life.

So Sarah will now be my DD to raise.

Get my drift??

I am being selfish, although it is what it is......

Glad your canning turned out so well.
I understand about having a 4 legged kid. I haven't made children but raised a kitty for 9 years (till she passed).
I'll forgive you for foolin' me as long as you post more pics once you have her. After all, she's gonna be adorable and we should enjoy her some too.

Those dogs sure are a handsome pair! Congrats on your new DD!
