Charlie and Murphy are adjusting very well to living with us.

We have discovered that Charlie is a toy hoarder and keeps them picked up. He even takes Milky's toys and hides them with the rest. He says Good Morning to everybody in turn and loves our 7yo son, I think he thinks our son is another puppy to play with! Recently we all came down with a terrible cold. Charlie slept by the side of whomever was in bed with a fever that day.One quirk we adore is his snoring! Charlie is definitely not a morning dog and doesn't like to stay up late, he needs his 12 hours :)

Murphy has come a long way from the timid, nervous, mildly cranky doggie he was when we first got him. We all remember a particular Wednesday in November, he was a different friendlier dog that morning. He has started "talking" to me. He sleeps at my feet every night and follows me everywhere, and now he asks for snuggles and belly rubs. We discovered that he loves to be swaddled! Murphy has the ability to jump 4ft. in the air, he must have springs for hind legs!

Our older dog Milky has finally agreed that life isn't so bad with two more furries in the house. He was kind of nervous and afraid of them for awhile, but just a week ago we had all three snuggling with me on the sofa happily.

The children came up with a rotating schedule for feeding, walking, grooming, and letting them out for potty breaks. I feel this has helped Charlie and Murphy to really bond with everyone. I was in the house with the dogs and the children were outside shoveling and Oh MY! they cried and ran from window to window until all the children were back in the house.

We are so happy to be the family to adopt them!
