Slightly OT: Meet Hans & Lady!!!>>>>>>>>>

[jholbrook]

Hey gang!

It's been a busy, tiring weekend as Karen and I welcomed two new family members! Karen has been wanting to get a dog for a couple of years now...she'd feel better when I'm traveling have a dog in the house. I resisted for about a year, but have been softening to the idea this past year, and we went looking at various shelters and pet stores, trying to get an idea as to what breed we wanted. Karen's first pick was either a Labrador or Golden Retriever. We located a breader locally who had a couple of 10 week old puppies left from a litter, and were AKC certified from a good blood line. When we got there, it was clear this brother and sister weren't about to be broken up, so I bought 'em both. :blush: I named the male dog (the darker of the two) Hans (after Hans Wilsdorf of course! See, the post isn't entirely unrelated to Rolex!), and Karen named the female, Lady. Meet Hans and Lady!!



Here's a few shots of Hans:







Here's a shot of Lady:



Here's a shot of Lady "helping" mom sweep the floor:



These two play together constantly!











We got them on Saturday. Sunday we got them up and took them out back so they could explore the back yard:



It didn't take them long to start playing again!









Karen supervised:





Hey! Where's mom going?!?



Let's destroy this tree!



The Trouble Twins take a break to pose for the camera:



Karen is thrilled with our new "kids!"



I hope you enjoyed the photos!

Cute puppies! Congrats!

But maybe you should reconsider the names. Hans and Lady?

I wonder how you pronounce "Hans"; like "hands" or rather German?

Your new family members are really cute! Congratulations. You will have a lot of fun with them, no doubt about that.

By the way, dogs are not OT, in case they wear a collar made of the same material than a watch strap. Here my pug wearing a strap made by your moderator colleague DonLuigi.

great pictures of some fine and very cute dogs. If my wife sees them she will propably run off to the next store and buy a dog (she always wanted one, but in downtown dogs are poor souls)

I m happy for you John, your dogs are beautiful.
I love this kind of dog.
Thank you for sharing.

Thanks guys...glad you're enjoying the pics. We're closing in on a full week with these two. If puppy poop had any street value, I could buy another Rolex buy now...

I´m still drying to convince my girlfriend that pug would be a good idea
