Happy Birthday Rowdy! He's One Today

Before we get to today's post, today's the last day for my Great New POPrs Giveaway. Everyone who recommends a beach book for Aunt Julie is a winner!

I am participating in Six-word Saturday. Stop by and see Cate at Show My Face. Tell her Aunt Julie sent you.

We found LOVE

on the Internet!

Our 16 1/2-year-old Springer, Trouble, died last fall. We were NOT looking for a puppy! One night I was fooling around on the Web and found a photo of the most adorable puppy. I called the breeder and opened the conversation with, "Is your Web site up to date?" He said "Excuse me?" "Your Web site. Is it up to date? Are the puppies you list as available really available?"

Well, yes they were. We live in Wisconsin (as you know, Brett Favre and all) and the breeder was in Minnesota. How far could it be? So I asked where in Minnesota they were located. His answer: "Do you know where Canada is?" Turns out it was a 10-hour drive, one way! But he offered to meet us half-way, so early the next morning, we were on our way.

Today is Rowdy's 1st birthday. Who says you can't find love on the Internet? We did.
