Catching attitude from my wife over the pup Duncan

He eats three times a day puppy food. And I will add a bit of peanut butter with his dry food. My wife told me the other day she gave him dry food and at 10 weeks he was like hey you need to add peanut butter lady.

My wife says you are spoiling him I said dear. I replied I did the same for mr big paws our 12 year old golden retriever and boog he’s ten the chocolate lab. I then added dear I understand you gave birth to 4 of our 5 children three grown daughters and a son biological who is 15. Then we adopted our foster son after you informed me we were going to enter the foster program. Jokingly I said you raise your kids I’ll raise mine.

I smile yesterday and today I took young pup Duncan golden retriever puppy to trail to walk. Now I know his little legs try. He made it on walk about .25 mile on 2 mile trail he tires out. Hey mister I’m a small guy we have water to hydrate Duncan and man then I end up carrying him the other 1.5 miles on my neck. I get ear licks hey I’m comfortable you carrying me mister.

I slacked off walking boog he’s 10 and I’m worried as his hips giving him trouble. Although I took him swimming yesterday he had blast. And boog swam to me smiling hey man this is fun. I love mr boog so much ok man hold me let’s float in quarry. Hey man boog says tell my boys to share the float raft help me up and we put boog on the raft.

Everybody could belong to a family as full of love and humor as TEB’s.
