Puppy Love

"I think dogs are the most amazing creatures; they give unconditional love.  For me they are the role model for being alive."

-Gilda Radner

I'm just going to get this out there right now; I have the cutest dogs ever!  They keep me company all day long, they provide an endless source of entertainment, and they appreciate everything I do with them, even if it is just sitting with them.  I really don't have much to say, so I'm just going to show you a little bit of why I love them so much!

Briggs Smith

Briggs was born on March 26, 2009.  We adopted him in July of 2009.  He belongs to Nathan and me, but he is 100% without a doubt Nathan's dog.  He graduated top of his class from Petsmart's beginner and intermediate classes.  He is best known around our house as the baby dinosaur because from certain angles he bears a striking resemblance to a dinosaur.  He also thinks that he weighs 5 pounds as opposed to the 63 pounds that he actually weighs.  He is best known for trying to fit in spaces that are too small for him; Tyson's bed for instance.

Tyson Smith

Tyson was born on July 29, 2010 and he became a part of our family the following November.  He is the boss of the house and he gives Briggs a run for his money on an almost hourly basis.  He is the best lap dog ever.  He is also the best napping buddy ever.  A large contrast from Briggs, Tyson weighs in at a whopping 4 pounds and 14 ounces, but when he plays it is like he and Briggs are equal matches.  I am sad to say that I don't have a whole lot of pictures of him, but that is a work in progress.

And here are a few shots of them both.
