Bucky

WE GOT A PUPPY!! Her name is Starbuck but we call her Bucky.  She is 4 months old and is an Australian Cattle Dog mix. She is 23 pounds and we got her at a no kill shelter.


We have been taking care of a lab for some friends for a few days and we realized how much we miss having a dog since Alex died last February.  Derek, Will and Nate have been excellent with Scout and so we started the search.. actually Mike has been looking at dogs on the web for a month.


I had D all prepped about looking at dogs and meeting one but not getting one today.  So imagine my surprise when 2 hours later we have brought a dog home.  We had a great visit with her at the shelter and Mike did some work with her to see about intelligence and discipline. We had no red flags and we all enjoyed her.  They don't hold dogs for you so here she is at our house!  Scout had done a great job settling her in.  Bucky slept on the floor in the car on the way home like a true champ.  She played out back and got to know the yard. Now she is taking a nap on the floor.  Mike is running around to stores to get all the supplies we need.

Welcome to our family Bucky!
