Tucker is a Good Listener

Tucker turns 6 months old this month, well, we think. We've decided his birthday is St. Patrick's Day... This afternoon, I couldn't help but laugh out loud when I got up from my desk to find that Tucker had brought not one, not even two, but THREE tennis balls into my office. Now, if that isn't a sign that he wants to play fetch, I don't know what is! Needless to say, he's full of energy at this age. Thank goodness his growth spurt has slowed. Last month he was gaining 5 lbs a week! He's holding around 35 lbs, so we're still hoping he may not be a full grown chocolate lab (thanks to the mix of his unknown dad;) Yes, that right ear is permanently stuck up!

oh how cute is he?? And Maggie is half his size and weighs just about as much...guess the stranger walking past our yard mentioning "your little dog is so cute...and fat!" wasn't rude, just honest. Tucker looks less terrier now...except for that ear.

Hey I want to see more pictures of Tucker!! Jeannie, don't take it personally. Someone once told us that Madison is "a big dog". The vet is happy with her size and she is quite a happy dog too :) Christine, when are we going to formally meet Tucker? We have entertained Maggie already and Bridget and Madison would love to do the same for Tucker.
