Introducing the newest member of the Kofford clan!!!


I'm generally a very rational, and analytical. Typically I do what the general consensus reveals to be appropriate. After MUCH deliberation, and discussion with my sweet and understanding wife, we adopted a black lab from a kennel. I came to the conclusion that Natalie needed a dog that is very easy to train, and for the most part obedient. I also knew that a lap dog wouldn't necessarily fit our lifestyle, hence, the larger dog.
I began looking on ksl.com, mostly out of curiosity. While searching for dogs, I came across a black lab from a kennel in Murray. Her name was Harley (I'm currently trying to change it to Saydee). She's a little older than a year, and is already house trained, and for the most part knows how to sit, and come when called. We ended up getting her a little earlier than expected, so a buddy I work with offered to dog-sit our dog,
while we're house-sitting for the parentals on a mission in Prague. Fortunately, they have a chocolate lab, so they're keeping themselves pretty well entertained!
At any rate, against what all others suggested, Natalie and I came to the conclusion that now's as good a time as any to get a dog!
Thanks babe!!!

Hooray!

You know, we got our dog Lu a year before Tal was born and it was perfect.

Ah, she's cute! She reminds me of my own little black lab (mix). Congrats!

What's wrong with Harley? I love it! Saydee is just a dumb old dog name that everyone names their dog.
