New Addition to our Family

We have added a new member to our family. He is a yellow Labrador puppy. Maverick was not at all sure of him at first meeting and I don't think the puppy was too sure of Maverick either. We did not have a name for him so Papa suggested that Connor and I go on the Internet and find male dog names. We did that and then wrote down all the names we liked. Connor then made a graph with all the names and places for each family member to pick yes, no, or maybe to each name. Once that was completed Connor informed us that the name that had the most yes votes was Trooper...so Trooper it is.

Once Maverick and Trooper stared, pawed, and sniffed each other they decided being brothers was going to be fun. Trooper does not know how much smaller he is than Maverick and holds his own pretty well. It will be fun to watch the dynamic between them as Trooper gets larger than Maverick.


Maverick is very happy to have a playmate and Trooper seems to enjoy it too.
