New Fur Baby

Hi Everyone.
Here is my little surprise! We were able to pick up our new sweet fur baby.
  It has been 7 months since we lost Cooper and we have missed him so.  When this sweet love came up for a rescue adoption we decided to take the plunge once again.




This was Cooper when we picked him up from the rescue and brought him to our forever home.  We soon then discovered that this sweet lug of love had a aggressive cancer.  We were able to give this guy a full year with lots of love before the cancer took his life.  He was such a sweet boy and we have missed him so.


So fast forward 7 months and this is our sweet new rescue girl that we picked up today.

This is our new fur girl.  We named her Peggy.  Sorry to all of you that wanted Lucy but Peggy won out with the grand girls vote!!!
So Peggy is now in her forever home and we will love her and spoil her.

So it's Peggy Sue the Basset Poo!

Peggy is on the tiny side for a basset hound and has the sweetest laid back personality.  I think she is going to share so much joy with us.


Peggy is all smiles.  So happy to be going to a real home.  Kennel life is over for her.





My granddaughter Charlotte is thinking of napping with Peggy.
Both have worn each other out today!


Peggy is zonked and needed a nap after the car ride home and playing with her new family.

So happy to give this sweet girl a new forever home.  She will fill our hearts with love and joy.  Happy we will be moving into the new house next week and she will have a real home.  Saying goodbye to kennel life.

Life is good.

Happy Weekend.

Enjoy.
Kris

  21. Awwwwww....this is such a wonderful post to wake up to Kris! I'm sooooo happy for Peggy Sue the Bassett Poo (that cracks me up). The best thing you could do to honor Cooper's memory was take in another rescue. May you enjoy many, many happy years with your new baby in your new home.

  46. Peggy is SO sweet! I love to see dogs go home to a family and get their chance at being what they're intended to be...man's (or little baby's) best friend. Congratulations to all of you, but best of all, to Peggy! I love her smiling face, and her restful positions on the floor. She's happy.

  47. My sweet Kris,
    I am so happy for you and your family. You are so kind people and your new "puppy" is just going to love you guys forever. Little Cooper I am sure, is watching you all from doggy heaven and just loving that you have a little girl named Peggy with you now.
    Many hugs,
    Karen B.

  53. Yay, how exciting! I'm so happy for you guys, she looks like such a sweet dog and I love the name! We went to the MN Twins game Thursday night and I saw a lady walking her Basset and he looked like Cooper. Every Basset I see now I always think of you guys. :-)

    1. Oh how cute. Yep a lot of red and white bassets look like each other for sure. I see a lot of Cooper in Peggy's face.
      Have a great week. Thanks for coming by.

  55. Oh my gosh, Peggy is just a little lovebug, isn't she? She is just as cute as Cooper, no doubt! Do you know, when I was adopting this time around, I considered a basset hound because of your sweet Cooper, Kris! The only challenge would be carrying her up and down the stairs when she couldn't do it herself any longer. My Lily girl is about 25 lbs which isn't nuts, but when I'm trying to carry her down a snowy staircase to do her business and she's fighting me....not so much fun! I really took that into consideration when I was looking for a new furbaby, because my house is a chalet style, which means the main living area is on the second floor, up a flight of stairs from the garden. I'm curious if Peggy is housebroken since she was used to kennel life? I am facing that challenge with Molly, and housebreaking an adult dog is definitely different than a pup. xo

  56. Peggy is absolutely adorable! I'm sure by now she has settled in and is right at home. Riley and Jacob send kisses and would send lots of treats if they could drive...ha!
