Pictures of the Pups

The dogs are getting so big!
Both the dogs love other dogs and people. Roxy isn't afraid of any dog regardless of thier size (like Bo-Bo the Saint Bernard at my parents house) Bones was big when we got him, 11 months old, but he has put on a good 20 pounds. He was here since the start when we barely had any furniture we've had Bones.
We adopted him from the Humane Society here in Saint Louis. He's a male Lab/Mix but everyone says he looks like a pitbull. He's a great dog and really laid back and wants nothing more then
to lay ontop of people all day long.
Roxy is my little girl and I'm sad she's getting so big. We got her when she was 8 weeks old. I really wanted a puppy, and Chase saw her at petsmarts. I tried to avoid it but I ended up going in. Orginally I picked up her little brother, and an old couple wanted to adopted him and I said i'f rather both the Dogs find a good home and happily took the girl, which turned out to be a good decision. She was born on the street with the litter and lived there for 2 months before being brought to the humane society. She's a border collie mix, and we're pretty sure she's mixed with black lab. She is extremely smart but a little stubborn and I've spoiled her too much.
She's now 6 months old and pushing 35 lbs.
Even though when we first got her it was hectic (the day after adopting her from a shelter she had pneumonia and bronchitis) it's been worth it and the two of them love eachother and our a huge part of our life. (No more dogs though, no matter how much I love puppies)We just went and bought them a bunch of new toys since they chewed everything they had, and I got Roxy an adorable pink bandanna.
