Hershey

Well, Kortney finally got what she's been waiting for the whole extremely long, cold winter. Hershey is our (her) new little puppy, and Kortney has learned a lot of responsibility in a very short time. She loves the little guy. He's not exactly what we had been looking for, but he won us over. When Neil and I got back to Soda Springs after our anniversary trip to Logan, Mom Price had her neighbor's last little puppy there waiting to meet us. Kortney, Taylor and Emmrie had been playing with him all day, and were so excited to ask if we could keep him. He's part pug, part labrador (a "pugador", they call him), and is only supposed to get about half the size of a lab. I think I can handle that size (I say that now, of course). Neil and I both liked him at once. He's pretty mellow for a puppy, and he was less expensive than the other kinds of dogs we had been looking at! Our boxer, Kali, loves him, too, and they play so good together. I just can't wait until he's potty-trained. It would help if it would quit snowing here so Hershey would actually like going outside in the early morning! Kortney is so good about cleaning up after him when she can, and about feeding and watering him. She even takes him out in the middle of the night to go potty. We'll see how long that lasts. It's been good so far! So, as if we aren't crazy already, we just thought we'd add one more to our family!
