Tomorrow's the big day!

Since Picassa isn't here during her season I borrowed Sugar for a few days. She is a great dog and I really enjoy having her. On Sunday we met up with Sarah and Rafferty to play in Salt Lake a bit and had a great time! Of course we went to the planetarium, it's always such a great experience for the dogs. Here are the pictures:

This is one I took in my yard. I just love how pretty she is. She is a lightly coated white Golden Retriever with black eyes. Her eyes really stand out against her white fur.

In other news, tomorrow I get to meet my new puppy!! I spent all yesterday puppy proofing and dug out the baby puppy toys. I can't wait to meet the little thing, so watch for a post about it tomorrow. ;)

Puppy News!!

A few weeks ago I asked my leader if it would be possible for me to get a puppy off of the August truck so that it would be ready to go out in public when Picassa leaves in October. She said she would let me know. I didn't think it was going to happen since I didn't hear anything from her for a long time, but yesterday she called me with a puppy assignment. :) I guess she thought it would be okay. I am super excited to finally be getting a baby puppy as it's been about 2 years since my last one. In 8 short (hopefully) days I will have my very own puppy breath and Frito feet.

And, what would getting a new puppy be if I didn't do a name game? But I am only going to give you minimal info and you have to guess the rest and the winner will get a giftcard to Petco or Petsmart or I can just send you a toy of your choice. How does that sound?

You will get:
2 points: for guessing the right name (guess as many names as you want, within reason. :)
1 point: for guessing the right gender
1 point: for guessing the right color

The person with the most points wins.

So without further ado, I am getting a Lab who's name starts with the letter "S." The mom is a black lab and the dad is a yellow lab (that should help with color guesses) Happy guessing!!

P.S. I've told a couple people the puppy assignment so you guys are only allowed to guess names!
