Why this blog?

I've wanted to begin a blog for quite some time now! Well for 2 1/2 years to be exact! It was supposed to be a blog about bringing our angel #3 into the world. Well...things didn't exactly go as planned with her birth and well.....here it is 30 months later!
So what better time than a resolution in 2010...no more procrastinating.
But what to blog about? In asking myself several questions; what interests or challenges me?, what is new in our lives?, what can I write about daily for an entire year?, what will also include my whole family?, I was able to come up with an idea.
At the end of January we will be bringing home our newest addition to the Schreyer Family....a 8 week old husky puppy.
This blog will cover our trials & tribulations, tears, and joys, and individual experiences while raising a puppy as a family.

A waterlogged stick is what 'it's' all about!

(sorry...I am tired tonite and nothin's flowin' so here a great quote that really sums it all up anyway!)

"A dog has no use for fancy cars or big homes or designer clothes. Status symbol means nothing to him. A waterlogged stick will do just fine. A dog judges others not by their color or creed or class but by who they are inside. A dog doesn't care if you are rich or poor, educated or illiterate, clever or dull. Give him your heart and he will give you his. It was really quite simple, and yet we humans, so much wiser and more sophisticated, have always had trouble figuring out what really counts and what does not. It was all right there in front of us, if only we opened our eyes. Sometimes it took a dog with bad breath, worse manners, and pure intentions to help us see."

:) I think we all get puppies to be a bit of a reflection of our selves :)
Like my puppy I want good food that will make me feel good and perform at my optimum! ( Chantelle your puppies are very lucky to have you !!) someone to love dearly and spend time adoring and happily snuggle ( my puppy is very lucky the she must be the most adored and snuggled dog in the world!??). Also my pup and I both love to get out and stretch our legs and run as often as possible and... of course we both want a little something to carry around and call our own ... a waterlogged stick for my pup... for me it is my purse :). I love your blog .. and I can not wait to meet your puppy and help you both "socialize" :D
