Introducing Ruger!

Back in January 2014 I decided to put our name down for a little German Shepherd puppy. I was thinking we may get one that spring but there was already a waiting list so, we began planning for a puppy the following spring. I got an email in January 2015 from the breeder saying there was a litter due the beginning of February and we were third in line for a little boy. Yippee!
Sadly, though, when February rolled around there was complications during the birth and only one pup survived. Reading that email was hard to do but, we realized it just wasn't meant to be and shifted our thoughts towards April 3rd, when the next litter was due.
And here it is, already May 29th! We roadtripped west, witnessed a bit of the oil field hustle and bustle, and picked up our little guy. He was a trooper on the drive home! Whined a bit the first 10 minutes, threw up on my lap, fell asleep, threw up again in the back seat, and conked out again for the remainder of the 3 hour drive.
Now at home, he's not quite sure what to think of the cats! He currently hates his collar, loves chewing on the leash, and enjoys licking Aaron's hair. We decided on the name "Ruger". Be prepared to see lots of Rue!
