We are a family that loves having a dog. We've always had a dog at one point or another in our marriage. We got our first dog from Frank and MiAnna. We were visiting them or first year we were married. They had puppy Britney spaniels and we couldn't resist. We named her Titan. She lived until our first year in our new house. Sadly she had an accent with her zip line and passed away.
Shortly after that we got it next puppy, a red healer we named Millie. She was so fun. tragicly,s got ran over by a car a few weeks later
Then we had a hard time finding another dog that we liked.... We had a Blue healer named ________ I can't even remember his name. He was a little bitey so we got rid of him.
Then we got Dusty. She was a puppy we got from Brett's cousin Ashley. We got her when you was about 10 months old. We had Dusty crawl into bed with Ethan. And they hit it off. We named her Dusty because she was a black lab and she liked to go in the shop with Brett. She would get so dusty that the name just stuck. We had her for about 10 years. She just got old and died in May.
We missed having Dusty around and the back years didn't seem to be the same without her. So, we decided we needed to find our next dog. Brett works with a friend who breeds dogs, and they had lots of puppies to choose from. We choose a burnadoodle. A Bernese mountain dog and a poodle mixed together. Our kids had so much fun picking out or new puppy. We named her Cookie because she looked like an Oreo cookie. We were going to name her Oreo but we decided to go with cookie. She has been a lot of fun. She is growing big so fast. Which is frustrating to Carrie, she can't hold the leash anymore because cookie takes off and Carrie is not strong enough to hold her back. She had been a lot of fun to have around. Todd thrives with puppies and let's cookie wrestle around with him. We hope Cookie will be around for many years.
