Big Puppy!



So we got Rex I think about 6 weeks ago and he's been such a great puppy even though he get's himself into trouble quite a bit. But he had his first puppy shots yesterday and he did so good but when we adopted him they said he was a border collie/australian Kelpie mix, so we were thinking he would be a medium sized dog. But the way he has been growing soooo fast and as much as he eats we started to have our doubts! His paws about fit into my palm perfectly so they're pretty big paws! But when I took him into the Vet yesterday to get his shots and have him weighed and such (which he weighed 25 1/2 lbs!) they vet asked what kind of dog he was and I told him what the people said when we adopted him and he kind of chuckled and said he was probably a Rottweiler, Mastiff mix! So that came as a shock and it seemed to put everything into place! haha! It's like feeding a horse! The first picture was 10 days ago just hanging out in our backyard and the second picture is yesterday right after his shots hanging out at Pat's work. You can see he's already grown a bit just in thoughs few days! But we love him and wouldn't trade him for anything!

You poor girl! That's going to be such a big dog! It's going to be bigger then you! Good luck with him. Once they get older, at least they calm down, but they're not as cute as when they're puppies!
You and Pat look so good. I'm so happy for you two. I know if D.J. thinks a lot of him, then he's a great guy! You deserve it!
