Well as some of you know by reading my "I'm gonna miss her" thread I lost my 11 year old chocolate lab Allie on Valentines day. Our house hasn't been the same since and I think about her every day.
My wife dropped a hint that a puppy might be a good idea and when puppies are involved I don't have much self discipline. A friend at work picked up a Bloodhound male last week from a litter near by and told me about them. My wife and I have been talking about Bloodhounds forever and this just came at a time that seemed too perfect.
I picked her up on Friday morning and brought her home w/o telling my wife about her. I wanted a female and got to pick out of the 3 females in the litter. She looked at me with the perfect eyes and a very nice smart bump (just like my choco lab Allie had) and I didn't even look at the other 2 females. Love at first sight for sure. I know Allie would approve of her and I just hope she is 1/2 as smart as Allie was.
Shes about 7 weeks now and we decided on the name Jupiter. So without further ado, meet Jupiter Cypert:
