After spending some time getting to know our new baby, we have decided to change his name to…….
Master Oliver de Barkington von Beaglestein, or Oliver for short. It’s absolutely true that having a puppy is a lot like having a baby, as Kevin is slowly finding out. Last night after we got home from dinner, he said “C’mon, just give me a couple of minutes to unwind”. Um, yeah, no.
Oliver definitely has the same beagle-type idiosyncrasies as Rigley, right down to his routine. We’re going to enroll him in training classes next weekend, though, so hopefully we’ll be able to control some of the chewing/digging/shredding issues before they get too bad. Right now it’s just typical puppy stuff, but I don’t it to accelerate.
Sir von Beaglestein really likes to make sure he naps on schedule, so right now I’m off to admire his sweet puppy face while he sleeps.

Ha! When I first got Cookie, I was calling my mom every half hour with a question. I needed her help with my new baby! LOL.
He’s just precious. Congrats again!
