A year of Guinness


A year of Guinness.

We have had our giant furry toddler for a year now! The beginning took some adjusting with seperation anxiety, dietary issues, and the eating of the drywall by our front door. He was wary of us at first, maybe he was not sure if this was his home or how long he would stay with us. From unloved to the star of the house, Guinness is now a happy, well adjusted, well trained dog. There is never a dull moment with him in our home!

Thank-you ASR (http://www.allshepherdrescue.com/) for helping us adopt this wonderful dog.


Go Eagles!


Someone stole all the Easter Eggs!


Patiently waiting for me to throw his ball.

His new best friend Gracie.
