Time to get out

Who's a good boy?

None of us saw any of the boys for a few weeks after that day at the gym. But boy did we think about them. Every night i found myself dreaming of matty, the smoke from his ciggarret hanging around the edges of all my thoughts, and i found myself searching for his dark eyes everywhere i went.

Today was the day we were picking up our new puppies. We were getting 4 english bull terrier puppies from a breeder about 20 minutes away. 3 boys and 1 girl. We had faught over the names for quite a while but had eventually settled on them. 

When we arrived we were taken out the back and shown a small room with 8 little puppies. We got to chose the four we wanted as the other people adopting them were coming this afternoon. We watched them for a little while, playing with them and understandibly wanted all of them. After about an hour we had chosen 4. Probably the hardest decision of my life. 

The first two boys we chose, Duke and Gambi, were brown and white, then the third boy, Deeno, was a beautiful black and white. Our little girl, Zalia, was white. She was gorgeous and had a little brown dot just above her eye. I was so excited i could barely breath as we drove straight hom. Steph drove while Kat and i sat in the back of the car as the little guys jumped around. Their little teeth were sharp as they kept biting out fingers and then each other, the boys rolling around on the floor.

As soon as we got home we took them straight to the roof, setting them loose on the lawn. We had bouth speeky toys and balls and bones and for over 2 hours we all rolled in the grass, threw balls and got sat on by our new babies. As the sun started setting we took them downstairs and after watching them scoff thier food we bought out our doonas and tried to settle them in fornt of the TV. it had obviously been a big day for them as well as about 30 mintues later they were all asleep, Deeno and Zalia snuggling up against my body.

"Should we just sleep here?" I asked quietly.

"I dont think i could desterb them even if i needed to." Kat replied stroking Duke who was passed out on her stomach. Steph groaned in agreement, Gambi in her arms as she drifted off.

What a day, i thought as i too felt sleep coming on.
