She has been begging for a puppy for about a year. We have not been able to have a pet in several years due to Cameron's restrictions. I wasn't sure that I really wanted to get a dog now, but Sam is experiencing a serious case of survivor guilt. We felt that having a puppy would help her re-focus. Here is my happy girl with her great big puppy:
This dog is going to be huge, probably around 100 pounds. She is 6 1/2 weeks old. We got her on Saturday. Sam named her "Marley." She is as sweet as can be, very quiet and essentially house-broken all ready.
