After 3 years of promising the kids a dog, we finally brought home our new puppy this last week. We are still debating on a name- Tazer or Napoleon, but he answers to almost anything the kids call him (I prefer Tazer). Tazer is a male purebred toy poodle, born in January and currently weighs 3 lbs.Our house is now fully converted to a puppy palace with food, toys, a kennel, and even a fenced off area in our living room. Of course the empty promises of the kids taking care of the dog lasted less than a day.
Kenn isn't super excited with the situation of a new pet (between driving a minivan, being a stay at home dad, and now owning a toy poodle, I think Kenn's manhood is being tested), but we are having fun with the new puppy anyway.
Tazer is mostly potty trained, but we are getting good at finding little presents left by him in the house. Our puppy also wakes up at 6:00 AM every morning whining to be taken outside (somehow I am always the one getting up with him). So if anyone is up at that time and in the Bountiful area, feel free to come visit me.

Sounds fun! I keep thinking we need to do the puppy thing for our kids too, but it's a lot like having a new little baby! Oh, but what fun you and your kids will have with your new little "addition!" Congrats!
What a little sissy. Think you need to dress him in camo and have him drive a small tank to man him up.
