For my 21st birthday I requested a puppy of my very own! We have always had family dogs, but I wanted to have the bond with a dog of my very own that I saw my sister and her dog Daisy have. Memorial Day weekend the Sunder family welcomed it's newest member, BOOTER. I gave her my nickname that was given to me by my Daddy and it is one of my favorite. After having Booter for quite some time now, I understand why my mom never wanted us kids to have our "own" dogs growing up because she would have ended up doing all the work. Having a puppy is NOT easy...getting up in the middle of the night to let her out, potty training, making sure everything is put away so she doesn't chew anything, leaving doors shut, etc. Sounds like taking care of a baby right? Well I think that taking care of a baby is easier (and we all know I have lots of experience with babies)! Despite all the work, she is my baby girl and I love coming home to her and cuddling at night when we go to sleep! She knows I am her Mamma and that is exactly what I wanted!
