such a good boy.......

Please meet our new 'baby' named Tanner!
Sometimes the stars align and things just work. I really believe Tanner was meant to be with us...fate, if you will. Tanner was rescued as a baby by a wonderful couple and has lived with them for the last two years. John & Tammy have loved Tanner and taught him to be the excellent boy he is today. He truly is Little Mr. Manners. However, as Tanner has gotten older there has been growing tension between him and the other male Springer in the family. Tanner's environment became stressful for him ... John & Tammy made the very unselfish decision to place him in another home where he could be the top dog and minimize his stress. The super cool thing is...John & Tammy only live 11 minutes from us!
We were all able to meet today.
Generously John & Tammy brought all of Tanners things including a HUGE wire crate that is as big as one of our bedrooms! :) He even has a blanket with his name embroidered on it....he is loved. Tanner found his forever home today.
So, you'll be seeing/hearing a lot about our baby boy!
Stay tuned!

Time for a kiss & a close up!
