If someone asked me what I was most looking forward to about being a homeowner my answer would be simple...
Having my lucky girl live with us! That's right, I am pumped to know that the days of living without a dog are numbered. I have always LOVED having a dog in my home. And of course a Mom to take care of it :) I have loved each of my cocker spaniels throughout growing up.
We got our first cocker spaniel Ginger when I was about 4 years old. I remember driving to my Dad's work with my Mom to ask him if we could bring home Ginger from the pound. What a great dog! Whenever I was sick you would always find him laying right beside me keeping watch over me. We had to put him to sleep when I was 14. I might still tell my parents that they murdered my dog. To say I was upset is putting it mild.
About a year and a half later we got our second cocker spaniel, Bug a Boo. Yet again my Dad was not with us when we went to "look" at the dogs. That afternoon we left with a dog. We didn't need Dad to be there...he wasn't the one that ever needed convincing! Bug a boo is a great dog. Probably the best behaved of all 3...except when we go out of town. He doesn't like when we leave him. He is getting pretty old and slowing down quite a bit these days but I refuse to hear anything of that nature. I told you I love my dogs and it makes me really sad to think he may die soon.
Next comes MY third cocker spaniel, Lucky! That's right she is mine :) She will be 4 years old this April. It is my first girl dog and boy is she feisty! But I love her and she loves me. Right now she is living at my parents house but hopefully within the next month or so she will be back with me. I can't wait to have some extra company around. Hey a dog can be a girls best friend too ;)
FINALLY A BLOG POST!!! :) :) Good luck to you guys as you go on the path to home ownership. We are excited for you guys.
