She's here!


Miss Cora arrived tonight!


The newest member of our family arrived tonight! We have adopted a 12 month old Rottweiler named Cora. She is a rowdy as a puppy and a long and lanky as a teenager. She is a rescue dog, just like our other dog Gordon, and the only background we have on her is that she spent most of her puppyhood in the shelter until she was 8 months old and picked up by the organization Rottie Aid that rescues and fosters rotties until they can find them good homes. This is where we come in about 2 weeks ago. For months now the kids have been asking for and talking about getting another rottweiler and Frank and I started thinking about it and decided to look into it. We found this local organization and decided to check into getting a dog that was 3-4 years old but all that came back was this spunky puppy named Cora. We thought about it, prayed about it, prayed some more and finally decided to give it a go. So, here she is.


What do the kids think of her? Megan calls her Princess Cora. Mitch and Cora had a rough start because she was so excited when she saw the kids that she jumped up and knocked him in the face and knocked one of his loose teeth even looser which I had to pull out. Everyone is calming down and we are getting ready for our first night together. Wish us luck!!
