National Puppy Day!

Since March 23rd was National Puppy Day, I figured it was a perfect time to have a special post about our puppies!

First, there is Tompkins.  Technically, he is not a puppy since we will be celebrating his 10th birthday in May (and I just learned that when a dog is 8 they are considered a senior citizen...I can't believe I have a little senior citizen).  BUT he is a tiny, 6 pound Yorkie and everyone that doesn't know him mistakes him as a puppy.  My sister and I call him a puppy for life!

Then, we have Ethel (named after Steve's grandma!).  She is a beabull (beagle - bulldog mix) and was born August 2012...so she is still a puppy and sure does act like it!

Finally, we have Margie (named after my grandma! - Even though some people in my family think it's insulting to name our puppies after our grandmas, our grandmas think it's great - so that's all that matters!).  Margie is a bit wild.  As a puppy she likes to put everything in her mouth, including her poop...gross!  Margie is a puggle (pug - beagle mix).


Hug your dogs today and everyday!
