As we came to the end of the week last week Dan and I began to realize the house just wasn't the same without Buddie. It was way to quiet and actually kind of boring. Every night last week we tried to keep busy running errands or doing this doing that, but there was just something missing. We agreed it was a dog. We love spending time together and doing little projects or going places, but we also love having something that's OURS to enjoy. Dan has wanted a boxer ever since we have dated. His friends in college had them and he loved them. I really want another beagle. I did a little research and found that both the Boxer and Beagle breeds are great family dogs, they are very loyal and great with kids. This needed to be considered before we even think about having kids as these dogs have a long lifespan. Dan wanted a reverse brindle, male. You would think that would be easy as the brindles aren't a very popular choice for owners, usually people want the fawns. My mom happened to find one a couple hours away that was just ready to be taken home. Oh, yes, I forgot, we also already had a name picked out for him...Tyson. Well, wouldn't you know, this new babies name was Tyson. This all happened late Saturday night, my mom emailed the breeder, by Sunday afternoon we were in the car to go take a look at him and the breeders place (no puppy mills for us!)
Meet Tyson!! :)
Tyson, is 9 weeks old and AKC registered. He has 9 siblings, and he comes from Ft. Dodge, Iowa. He is pretty quiet and laid back...reminds me a lot of Dan. How, you may be asking. Well, Dan when I first met him seemed to be very quiet, shy, and pretty harmless. Tyson was super quiet the first night, and he is still pretty shy, however, when he wants something or in his case doesn't want something he will make it known! :) Dan and Tyson will be great for each other, Dan has this little sparkle about having Tyson around. Tyson loves his Dad! I will have to update more photos later of his first night home.
We are excited to have a new member of our family!
Love from the Buchholz House!
