New Addition: COPPER

Well, now all we need is a mini-van.  We will have our 3rd child this fall, we just got a cat...... and ... now we have a dog.

His name is Copper. Luke has wanted a dog our entire marriage but the timing just wasn't right. I wasn't about to let him get a dog when he was so busy with school and working too.  Then we didn't have a truck.  Then we just couldn't find the right one on KSL.  Either too much $$ or already sold.

Finally on Saturday Luke noticed someone had JUST posted about their dog in Lehi. We were heading up to the family reunion in Highland. Right next to Lehi! So we stopped on our way to check him and and then after the reunion came home with COPPER.

 He is a 2 and half year old Viszla.... which are closely related to the Redbone hounds like in "Where the Red Fern Grows" but they have a red nose instead of a black, and they are much better family dogs.  So far it's true.  

He will kiss ya to death, try to climb into your lap, and is an overall LOVER! He is suppose to be a bird dog, but so far, he only shows interest in mice trails.  (ironically, that's why we got the cat... and she' is petrified to be outside. ugh.)

Copper is overall pretty well behaved, but once he gets in his mind he wants to go exploring, not much changes his mind. Typical 2.5 year old!
