The Newest Edition to the Rockpick Household Is?

Okay guys and gals. The moment has come where I'm going to be a puppy owner...

I've narrowed it down to two dogs which are nearly identical. I haven't visited with either as of yet but, I anticipate bringing one of them home as early as tomorrow after we figure out which one we want.

With that in mind... let's roll out the mutts!


Mutt Numero Uno... Her name is FAITH (so says the shelter). She is a Black Lab/Dalmation mix (as if that wasn't obvious).




Mutt Numero Dos.... Her name is HOPE (again, so says the shelter). Like her sister, she is a mutt of a Dalmation and Lab.



Like you can plainly see, they are nearly identical in size and markings but, they do have their differences... I know it's like comparing red apples to red apples but, I thought I'd ask........

Which one ya think?

Something I would like to recommend. Try to spend a little time with them and see what kind of personalities they have. Does one like to chew a lot and seemed hyped up and one seem laid back? Does one seem more aggressive then the other, those type of things…

If one of their names began with an 'M' and the other a 'Z', this would be soooo much easier for you.

Why dont you see which one chooses you? My friend always took the first dog that came over to him or showed a strong intrest in him.

I'm more more partial to how a dog looks I'd pick Mutt Numero Dos, I like the markings a little more.

If either of them were a boy, I'd already SERIOUSLY considered the name Meguiar. Pitaful isn't it?

LOL!!!

It is kinda pitiful, but 'Meg' or 'Megs' doesn't sound bad either.

This is how I chose my last dog and she's been the best I've ever had

BUT, if you have the space, take them both!

Yeah, this ones a digger, and I've spent plenty of time running the steam cleaner on the carpet with this one. If he wasn't so darn cute I'd have to.....well, it aint happening.

Hey!

Tie a pork chop around your neck, and the one that comes running first is more shallow and only using you for food.
You don't want a 'fairwether' dog, chose the other one.

HA

Are they full siblings? man if they are, you have to get them both, separating them would be real hard on them.
They both cute and adorable, I really would hate to separate them if they are blood.
