We'd Like to Introduce...Sawyer Lee Parks

The story behind Sawyer: We started looking at puppies a
few weeks ago, online and in-stores. On Saturday morning, we found a Cockapoo that we thought was adorable online and called the breeder to schedule a meeting. She told us there were a few other people that were interested and she would call us later in the evening after she thought about who she wanted to give the puppy to. We didn't hear from her like we expected so I called her and left a very lengthy message about how I felt about the puppy just from the picture and how much time we will have to bond with him because we are both off during the summer. She eventually called back and said she needed until morning to make a decision. On Sunday afternoon, she called and left me a message saying she decided to give it to a friend. I was very upset....she hadn't even met us and made a decision like that! Well....she called me twice while I was really busy at a baby shower and she also called Larry while he was at the baseball game. Larry called her back and she said she changed her mind and asked if we could give her a second chance. I was still at a baby shower and had no idea this was happening! I got home, opened the door, and my precious little puppy ran right to me and I was almost in tears because I thought it was gonna be awhile before I could find another Cockapoo as cute! I was so happy though and I thought about a lot of different names that I thought would be perfect for him. We decided on Sawyer and he seems to like it.

Sawyer was born on Easter, so he has the same birthday as Larry's Mom and Tama Toa. He is currently 9 weeks and 2 days old and weighs 8 lbs. We will be going to the vet later today to get all the fun stuff done!

His change in houses and being away from his mom and dad hasn't really been too bad. He has only had a few accidents in the house, the breeder tried to get him potty-trained before selling him-which is a total blessing! He runs to the front door when he needs to go out. He has been sleeping with his momma and daddy in their big bed and he really likes it! He is a good eater and such a sweet heart!
