Midas Joins Our Family
December 12, 2004 - Roswell's Pages - Our Dogs
We picked up Midas from Delaware Puppy Rescue in Hockessin, DE, tonight.
Midas is definitely not afraid of Roswell, but he did manage to "initiate" the human pup, Nick, on our way home (see below).
Mommy weighed him after his bath tonight, and he weighed a whopping 21.2 lbs. We were told he is about 12 weeks old.

What a hungry puppy dog! Roswell marvels at Midas' appetite. Roswell was supposed to meet Midas, but Midas was more interested in his food :-)
 


"What? You want me to quit already? See, Roswell is not interested in my food, so I can eat it!"

Dianne Hess from Delaware Puppy Rescue holds Midas. She drove six hours today to pick up Midas and his brother and sister. They had traveled all the way from Indiana and were handed over in western Pennsylvania.

Nick, Elke and Nick are all smiles and even Midas smiles :-)
 


"Okay, I am ready to go, let's hit the road!"

Midas hit the road alright..., no, Nick is not incontinent, but rather he got to enjoy "yellow puppy juice" after holding Midas in the car! Yikes!!!
 


*chomp* "Let's see if Daddy cries if I dig my sharp puppy teeth in his hand"

"Hmmm, he hasn't flinched yet...tough guy!"
 


 "Well, I could just suck his thumb and go to sleep"

"What is that little stinker up to now?"
 


"Mom, you are NOT telling me that he is staying! He steals my ice cream and bones!"

Sleepy puppy!

"I like this person - she bathed me and is holding and scratching me...what a nice feeling after my long trip."
 


"Hush little Midas, don't you cry"

"What did you just call me? I am NOT a pee boy! I just have a small bladder right now!"
 


"I am not talking to him anymore tonight...pffft!"

"Alright, Mom, I will take care of him...if I must."
