We decided to keep two puppies from our litter: Bernie & Hansel. Since then, life has changed quite a bit for Charlie since he’s no longer an “only child.” However, we think fatherhood suits him well! The puppies keep him young and have made him an even more loving and affectionate boy (jealousy can have its benefits too)! As time has passed and the puppies have grown (especially Hansel!), Charlie can sometimes come off as a bit of a grump. Occassionaly, he will put the boys in their place, as most parents can relate. How else can you teach riley teenage boys respect?!
