Meetup Connections

In this post, I told you that I joined a meetup group.

Well, I got my first invite to a wheaten meetup! Melvin and I have a date to West Austin dog park tomorrow. I'm excited to meet more wheatens and their parents. I'm curious if Melvin will act any differently.

And although that's going to be fun, I have even more exciting news!

I was browsing the group and looking at the other wheaten parents and ended up coming across Nicole(and Claire, her puppy). I commented on how cute she was, and Nicole emailed me back and we got to talking. She said they wouldn't be at the meet up on Saturday because Claire was getting spade that day. I told her Melvin just got neutered a few weeks ago and to not worry, they get over it quickly. It occurred to me that they were around the same age. I replied back to her asking where Claire came from... Turns out they came from the same breeder at Kaven ranch.

They are not only from the same breeder, but they have the same parents and they are the same age. We discovered that Melvin and Claire are brother and sister!

You best believe I was freaking out when I found that out!!! Ok, I know there aren't a ton of breeders in Texas, but for them to be the same age and have same parents, just makes my heart happy!!!

Claire is among Melvin in these pictures. Can you believe it?! I can't wait for them to meet. I wonder if Melvin will even know? I wonder what their reactions will be.... I'm excited to find out!

Bailey meets Melvin

I had soooo much fun introducing Melvin to my BFF, Bailey! Her and Ed came over for a short bit last night in honor of meeting my new little pup. I think I have now convinced Bailey that she needs a Melvin of her own!(Sorry Ed!) But sadly, for us, Bailey and Ed will be moving in just two short weeks :( Not too much longer until they are off to the magical land of Orlando... Can somebody say Disney World?!?! Don't worry, it won't be long until we're heading East to visit them. :)

please say dreams come true!

This morning when I took Mac outside, my dream came running back into my mind in light speed. Last night I dreamt that we were celebrating my birthday and for my birthday, Scott surprised me with a puppy! I guess I've been subconsciously thinking about our future puppy a lot lately and my dream couldn't have got me more excited about it. 

Scott and I have talked about getting a puppy friend for Mac for quite sometime but we were waiting until I got a full time job and were living just the two of us at home(we had a roommate before). Technically, Mac is Scott's dog, so of course I want a companion of my own....

I (literally) have dreams of getting a soft coated wheaten terrier. Have you ever seen one of these puppies?! They are infinite amounts of cuteness and cuddles. I've done some research about them and according to this dog quiz, a wheaten has all the criteria that I'm looking for in a dog! Here are a few pictures to make you go "awww!"

I am in LOVE with these puppies. They are just as sweet as they are cute. I'm hoping we make my dream a reality in the upcoming months! Happy Friday!

What's your dream dog?

p.s. I will post about my east coast trip this weekend. I've had a tough time trying to get in the swing of things and have been lazy about using the computer.
