We Love Dogs


Last weekend JC and I went to visit the breeder from whom we got our girl Luna. Luna's mom just had another litter of puppies, so we decided to take the opportunity to visit 6 dogs instead of the usual three. Now, we didn't believe it until it happened to us, but never EVER take your checkbook when you are going to visit Berner babies. They are absolutely too adorable to resist. We ended up with Luna because we did not follow that rule! Fortunately it all turned out well, because we had planned on getting a dog, but we just got her a little earlier than we were ready for.

JC loves dogs. LOVES DOGS. He loves puppies, older dogs, ugly dogs, beautiful dogs. If it's canine, he loves it. He has been known to make chamomile tea for Luna when she has an upset stomach. Yes, it goes that far. He is completely in love with her and it is mutual. And I am nearly as bad. So you can imagine the fun JC had when we got to visit Luna's mom and dad and brothers and sisters. Well, see for yourself.











It's a good thing Berners like to be hugged about as much as he likes to hug them. But seriously, don't you want to take this home?






I did. Are we abnormal because we get dog hungry the way some people get baby hungry? Must be. But at least we are limiting ourselves to one until we have an actual house with an actual yard. And that will be awhile. So in the meantime, we will go dog visiting and leave that checkbook at home!
