So, here are the rug rats.
He's a four month old lab. As far as we know, he's a purebred, but he's not papered or anything. He's got so much puppy energy and a lot of curiousity. He's got the funniest personality when he hasn't done something that makes you furious. The other day he was nipping at Brian, so Brian put him in his crate to calm down. Well, Buick didn't like that so much, so to express himself he lifted his leg and peed on the crate. It's funny now, but not so much when it happened. Buick is still teething, so he chews on everyone and everything, including Shelby, but she's a good sport about it.
She is a lab/chow mix, but Brian and I think that there is something else in her too. She's a little more mild than Buick, but definitely doesn't let me walk all over her! She has a personality like a cat, the the dexterity of one too! One day we realized that she can climb, so we have had to change her three foot high crate because it just wasn't going to work for her anymore. She is very cuddly when she wants to be, but won't do anything that she doesn't want to. I can get her to sit, but that may be the end of it. I keep trying other things and she won't catch on.
Let's start with Buick.

Shelby!

So, there they are. There fun, but a ton of work. I would say that they are about 85% house trained now, which is good because I am so tired of cleaning up their messes! It's been nice to have a little life in our home when Brian is gone, which is often. I hope that I can get through this puppy stage without killing them, though! Here's a few more pic's just for fun.
