Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsI'm a mother again! Here is my new rescue puppy with my sweet girl:
Finally learned how to post photos! YAY! The new puppy is a lab mix, 14-weeks-old. The larger doggo is my deaf Catahoula mix.

(16,383 posts)We are not sure about the father. I'm open to suggestions. They thought the litter had more than one doggo daddy because some of the puppies looked like rottweilers and some looked like her.

Halo's paws look like she has some growing to do. Love those brief puppy months so much!

(16,383 posts)That couch was a terrible idea. Fur sticks to it like Velcro and it's impossible to keep clean. Between the dogs and cat, I need a faux leather couch. $$$ again, sigh.

(16,383 posts)Part of me really wants a pure-bred Yorkie, but the thought of paying for a dog when there are so many being killed in shelters, I just can't.

(16,383 posts)Vet said possibly border/lab mix. She said her fur wasn't typical of a lab, so she thought there was some herding dog in there somewhere. Gosh, her face sure does look like collie.
