New Addition to the Family
What can we say, we have added one more to the family, Copper, our new Pit Bull. Now before you get all exited and worried that all our children will loose their heads or fingers, rest assured it will be all right. She is a wonderful puppy and came from great parents.
I was at work and had to go to an apartment to pick up some merchandise that was past due.
Sadly, a father had deserted his girlfriend and daughter. She met us at the apartment and told us that there was a pit bull inside. Needless to say, in my job, that is a concern. However, when she opened the door, a very friendly mother and 8 puppies came running out. They were happy to see people. She said that they had been left in the apartment for two weeks when he decided to leave.
The apartment was in an extreme mess from nine dogs and no attention for two weeks. But the dogs were adorable. She asked if we would take some because she did not know what she was going to do with 8 puppies.
After seeing the temperament of the mother and asking her about the father, I was convinced I needed a puppy and our children are extremely glad. She has been a great addition and getting lots of love and attention. By the way, if you read up on Pit Bulls, you will find that they make great family pets if raised properly, which of course, she is getting a Christian up-bringing!

I think you are kidding about the Pit Bull. I'm no expert on dogs, but that looks an awful lot like the Jack Russell/Pugs they sell around here.
Copper is a very cute addition to your family. I'm sure she will do just fine with her Christian up-bringing and all.
Marsha, just wanted you to know that I missed you this past week. I'm sure you didn't miss all the meetings and discussions.... but it won't be the same this year without you and your children!
Aw, how cute. Nice to find your blog again.
Love that first picture! Copper IS a very cute dog.
I think it's a great dane. He will be HUGH! Now who will be walking this dog? Bryan? Why do I think that is a funny site to see? Get a really bag and shovel for the pooper scooper.
