BITTER SWEET

So last Thursday I got a call from Austin and we was very upset because his pet parakeet, Sammie, just past away.  We're not sure why he died suddenly.  Austin said he came home from school and gave him is fresh water and food and he ate a little and then just moments later fell over and just died.  I felt so bad for Austin, he saved his allowance and bought this bird along with the cage, toys, and food just this past summer.  He even trained this little bird to sit on his finger and/or shoulder.

The following Saturday we visited a couple of pet stores looking at other parakeets.  We found some at the Pet Smart in West Valley that had some pretty colors.  We decided to go get some lunch and return to the store and make are selection. 

When returning the store we notice the Humane Society had arrived with dogs and cats for adoption.  When ever I'm at the pet store with the kids we always like to look at all the cute animals that are for sale and then go on are way.  But this time it was different.  I took one look at this adorable little Pit Bull mix and melted.  So needless to say we have a new addition to the Fountaine family.  His name is Gunner and he is a 8 week old little boy.  Are other dog, Cole, is extremely happy to have a little friend to play with and they are getting along great!








And in case you didn't noticed, Chance broke his arm and Cole needs a haircut ;-)
