What are the Whittles doing, you ask yourself. Have they gone mad? Yes, we have a puppy. And yes we have gone mad. Neb, our German Shephard given to us from Grandpa now has a new home. He just wasn't working out. It wasn't just that he was ALWAYS underfoot and ruining the front door trying to get inside, or even putting Sasquatch in his place...what finally did it was when Sasquatch had finally decided he'd had enough of Neb constantly reminding him that he was the Alpha male and they got in a huge fight. It was brutal, like to the death. It scared me to imagine if the kids had been around. Neb always had to eat first. Sometimes he wouldn't even let Sasquach eat at all. One night Troy was feeding them and Sasquach went for the food and Neb let him know that he was going to eat first. Squach growled back and got a little aggressive which he never does. Well Neb went back for more and Squach just lost it. I could hear them from in the house, and Troy was out there with them. It sounded horrible. There wasn't anything Troy could do to stop them, I'm just glad it didn't happen with kids around. It finally ended when Sqauch had Neb around the neck and Neb pretty much gave up, then he let go. Neb got hurt a little, he's limping and was bleeding a little. Part of me felt bad for him and part of me thought he got what he deserved, he's always bothering Squach. Anyways, we did find him a good home. The lady who drives the kids bus took him. She said he's doing good and gets along with their 13 yr old dog. I feel better knowing where he went and we can still keep tabs on him. Onto the puppy. Troy loves St. Bernards. He found a breeder nearby and now we have Chewbacca (aka Chewy). He really is the cutest thing. He's going to be huge though. Squach seems to like him and by gettin him as a puppy there shouldn't be any dominance issues. St. Bernards are known to be big, lovable and lazy. So that is the latest in the animal department at our house!
Chewy sees Alex as a big chew toy. For the most part Alex thinks it's funny, til his ears get nipped on. Hopefully they'll be buds for a long time.

brooke-i can't believe how cute chewy is!! what fun! i was kinda on a 'animal high' tonight because brett and i found this cat so we brought into my aprtment and fed it, but then we had to let it go, i was so exicted to see an animal, but now seeing this little guy..i want to hold him!! he's so cute!! maybe he can come down at thanksgiving ;)
Your new puppy is so cute! Marcus keeps asking if we can get a dog. he keeps saying Devon has one. I guess it is time for us to try that experience of life- we have a huge fenced yard- though Jon has to fix the fence fully first . . . It would be something so new to me because I hav never owned or lived with a dog in my entire life!
So- how is life in Beiber?? Are you surviving? I miss you so much!
I think you guys should start a pet placement service! Troy is SO FAST at getting or replacing pets. I'll be your first client!
That puppy is so cute!
What a cute dog! I love the picture of Alex. I hope Sasquatch and Chewy are more compatable. He does look like a BIG puppy.
awww he is sooo cute!! i like the name Chewy too. can he come to thanksgiving?
does anyone know who "amp;" is and why he's trying to get inbetween our mom and dad?!!
hahaha, yeah i don't really know.
Chewy is very cute! I'm sorry to hear about the other dog issues though. Hopefully these two will work out better.
Miss you Brooke!
