Month of Thanks Day 2

Today I want to express how thankful I am for my growing family.

Bostyn Tea joined our family in March of 2011. On the day that Eric proposed to me we decided we wanted to add a puppy to our family. She is definitely a "daddy's girl" and loves Eric more than anything. Her current hobbies include people watching out the kitchen window and sun bathing. She also loves being an aunt.

Salem Devlyn joined our family in November of 2011. We enjoyed having Bostyn so much that we decided we wanted another American Bulldog puppy. We found a breeder and fell in love with Salem. We adopted her when she was 3 months old. Salem is full of life and loves being around people. While she may look like a small horse and be a bit scary looking, she is the most loving dog in the world! On October 17th she became a momma of 10 puppies and is attempting to adjust to her new role...

 

Eric and I have decided that we are wanting to keep a couple of Salem's puppies... So now introducing the newest members of our family...

Ate' (pronounced Aw-Tay) Nemesis is Salem's second born puppy. When he was born he came out fighting. We fell in love with him from the moment we saw him and just knew we had to keep him. Out of all the puppies he looks the most like his mom. He loves to play with his siblings and wrestle around. When he wants something he goes for it, even if it means pushing the others out of his way.

Phalanx (Fay-links) Alcibiades is my little baby. He had an interesting birth. He is the fifth puppy born to Salem. After the first 4 were born there was a decent time that went by and Salem decided she needed to walk around. She came back into the bedroom and sat on the floor by the bed. I looked down and noticed a puppy was coming out breach. She realized something was going on and took off running down the hall with him attached and hanging out of her. He ended up being born in the hallway. He is the runt of the group. He loves to jump on his siblings and bite at their ears.
