Searching for a Pup

My heart has been set on a Basset hound for sometime now. Who wouldn't love those droopy eyes and long ears? They are just too darn cute. My husband wants a Beagle for hunting and well he likes Beagles. They are also very cute also, sort of hyper though.

I have been searching for awhile looking at pups online and watching the ones at the local humane society. We found a place with the best of both worlds Beagle/Basset Hounds. The kids and I took the almost hour and a half drive to go see 5 female puppies. What better way to spend a wet and dreary Saturday?

new pup :)

my choice but not the one we are getting

Is it bad of me to want to be selfish and take the lil one my daughter is holding in the last picture? Isn't she so cute? Okay so I have sent the OK for the pup my son loves and we will likely have her by end of next week.

We will be brain storming puppy names all week, I am sure of it. We have a few already down on a list - Molly, Lucy, Eli, and Strawberry (daughter's pick). Any thoughts?

We will also be puppy shopping for food and a collar and leash, getting a license and make a vet appointment. So many things when getting a pup to think about. Do you have a dog? What kind do you have?
