As long as he remembers your anniversary, you can remind him about the pups! (who are the cutest things!) Rhiannon12866 Feb 2024 #15
Yeah, that's the issue getting him to remember OUR anniversary! Behind the Aegis Feb 2024 #16
I'm terrible about choosing names for dogs since I've adopted most of them as seniors so they already had names Rhiannon12866 Feb 2024 #18

We got our first one, Voodoo, years ago (we lost 2 years ago), because my husband thought he was a Rottweiler puppy! LOL! He wanted a big dog, didn't care for small dogs...that changed!

So, now we have 6! Two older ones, sisters, the two puppies and their parents.

Because they came a bit early, we didn't get to do stuff for our anniversary. Oh well, we enjoyed the day watching the puppies.

I hope you will share more pics later on, when they're older and bouncing around doing silly puppy things. That would be something to look forward to!

LOL! I love him to death, but remembering dates, well, that falls to me. Hell, I sent his mother a birthday gift one year, signed his name. She called ME to thank me. I said, no, it was your son's gift. She laughed and said, "uh-huh, riiiight!" HAHAHA!

We are trying to come up with names for them. That's been interesting. We were preparing for females.

But then my Sara came with the name "Cindy," which obviously wasn't her name and she didn't answer to it - and people thought I was talking about my cousin. She was found as a stray in Ohio and lucked out in being included in an "underground railroad" of dogs being brought to New York since we have tougher animal protection laws. So I just kept trying names and she finally answered to Sara, yet another Stevie Nicks song. She was such a nice dog that I often thought someone must be missing her. My boys were McCarthy's Rags, Barney, Meneken and Jack - the last I adopted as a puppy.

It's hard to tell how tiny they must be. Are they about the size of newborn kittens?
