...the newest member of our family! Yesterday Jonathan and I became the proud parents of a 9 week old golden retriever. We have dreamt of getting a golden retriever since we got together nearly six years ago. It has never been the right time in the past and there were always reasons not to get one. Last week we realized that all of our old arguments no longer apply. We fortuitously found JJ on a website that connects people with dog breeders all over the country. Scrolling down on the website, I saw JJ and his brothers posted and the number for the breeder was a Bolivar number. It turned out that the breeder is a family friend we knew in Bolivar. Jonathan called him and there was only one pup left. We said, "Great, we'll be there in two hours!" We drove down to Bolivar, picked up our little baby, and drove back to Dad's house to show him off.
He is the sweetest little puppy with a wonderful personality. He is very curious and playful but when you hold him, he goes limp and enjoys the love. He'll let you kiss his belly and his face and just wags his tail like crazy. Big sister Zoie didn't respond as negatively as we anticipated which was great. She hissed a couple of times but we think that she has established dominance and will be fine. Our little family has grown and we couldn't be happier.

Hello you two...or three...guess it's four, counting the entire family! Congratulations, once again, on your beautiful puppy-son! You will have many years of grand times and priceless memories with J.J.! It's only been a day since you left, and we're ready for you to bring him back!! All our love, Dad and Anja
