Burton

SO I have always wanted a doggy. always. But never knew the right time to get one. Well about 4 weeks ago, I decided....Now is as good a time as any! All of our friend have dogs and they all play together when we all hang out and I wanted to add to that fun! So I did!
I got up on a Sunday morning and started searching the internet. Also some of our friends told us to go to this pet store in Cary called the Pet Pad. I found some puppies for sale in Louisburg- they were Morkies-super cute! Then I saw a breeder in Chapel Hill selling mini schnauzers- all boys left- which is what i wanted, two were black and one was white! I called the Morkie breeder and no answer so I left a voicemail. Then I called the schnauzer breeder and they answered and I asked if we could go look at them that day and they said yes! So Shane and I went to the Pet Pad in cary just to look at their puppies cause we never knew, there could be one I really liked there! They had a couple really cute ones, so we played with about 3 of them. Needless to say, I had ZERO connection with any of them!! They were all WAY to hyper and all over the place and just not what I wanted! So we left and headed to Chapel Hill. We pulled into their driveway and they had a big fenced in yard with the three little guys running around and playing! I looked at Shane and said "oh my gosh!!" I instantly fell in love!! We got out, met the breeders and started playing with the little guys. They were all three SO cute! The two black ones were really identical and then there was the little white one! He was just so different and he kept coming over to me and playing with me. I was having a hard time deciding which one I wanted but I finally decided the white one was the cutest because he was so different!( White schnauzers are very rare)
I did the paper work, gave them the money and off we went with my little puppy!!! We had discussed before we got there what we would want to name him...Shane had come up with Puck (because we both love hockey) and I had come up with Burton (just cause I thought it was cute) I told Shane that once we got the puppy I would say a name and whatever he responded to, thats what it would be. So in the car, I said Puck!.....nothing. Then I said Burton!....and he looked up at me, instantly I knew that had to be his name!!! Everyone says that it sounds like such an old man name and I agree! but ya know what, its PERFECT for him...he is such a lazy puppy--a lazy puppy that looks like an old man with his beard!!! I love him! :)
He has really been SUCH a good puppy! Hes very well behaved( as good as a puppy can behave) I have enjoyed every second with this little guy!! There is just something so rewarding about coming home to a puppy that is SO happy to see you and gives you kisses upon kisses!!! such a sweet boy! Cant wait to see how big he gets and spend many years with this sweet little joy! :)
