Puppy Love

Ready or not, here comes a puppy!!!! Kevin and I are well on our way to having our very first pet, and I am SOOOOO excited! We have been wanting a dog since we got married over 3 years ago. However, we wanted a larger dog, and our living space has not been conducive to having a big dog until now, yay! We've put a deposit down on a male chocolate lab puppy from Brassbrigade Labradors in McDonough, GA. Here are pics of the mom (Charlie) and dad (Brody)...

...and....I couldn't resist -baby pictures of Charlie - the mom.


Unfortunately, puppy will not be ready for pick-up until mid-November! That gives us 4 months to think of some great names. We really like short names. Here are some possibilities:

Our Top Picks (so far):
Buddy
Bo
Huck
Others We Like:
Ray (I won't use this one, Amanda, but I do like it)
Jack (in honor of Michael Jackson - JUST KIDDING...I do like the name Jack, though)
Please send any name suggestions you might have - we'd love to hear them!
UPDATE:
Some other names I've found today are:
Shug
Jake
Chaco (too cutsie? maybe...)
Sam (after Samford Hall @ AU)
Sawyer

Oh another Ray! How funny! What if? I like all those names. They say short names are good for training.

Also, we really liked "Charlie" too. You could call him Chuck for short! We went through all of the all time great Auburn football players as well. But we just couldn't name Mr. Dog "Carnell" or "Sen'Derrick"

Yay Carrie! How exciting! Can't wait to see pictures of the new addition =)

Kelly, pics will come as soon as I have them!

Amanda, I like the idea of AU football players, too, but especially since it's a chocolate lab, we probably won't name it "Carnell" or "SenDerrick" :-)
