We called him Pacman

It had been awhile since we had a puppy and forgot just how much work goes into having one around. Getting him outside to relieve himself wasn't really a problem. As a matter of fact, Benson has been the quickest learner on being house trained.

The real problem are those little razor sharp teeth. As you can almost see in this photo, that tiny little bit of white in Benson's (w/ Rosie) mouth -


He used to come at us with his mouth open, always chomping on some part of your body that he could grab, so we dubbed him Pacman. It felt like forever before he learned that anything covered in flesh wasn't a chew toy.

He's one hot dog

The day we went to pick Benson up to bring him home, it was a very hot day in June. Unfortunately the air conditioner in the car we took didn't work, so we drove home as quickly as we could.

Thankfully we have central air and had the house at a comfortable 18 degrees.

It wasn't long before Benson figured out where the cool air was coming from...


He's one smart puppy!
