Since I've been lurking a while...

[sarahrizzi]

I guess it's time for a formal introduction!

I'm Sarah, and earlier this summer I became a puppy mom to a wonderfully sweet baby boxer named Amelia. My boyfriend and I debated for a long time about whether to adopt a puppy or not, and we came to the conclusion that our new apartment life just wouldn't be complete without a new little friend, so off to the humane society we went! We expected to look around for a while and maybe adopt an older dog, but as soon as we saw Amelia we knew that she was the perfect pup for us! They told us at the shelter that she was most likely a boxer mix, but the older she's gotten and the more self-proclaimed "boxer experts" we've met, the more we think that she's just a boxer.

As soon as I can figure out how to put up pictures I'll add some! Right now it's telling me the file is too big. Hmph.

Thanks for the warm welcomes!

I tried using photobucket but when I previewed the post, it cut off the edges of the pictures. I'll try again today.

Sarah, Try resizing your photos BEFORE you upload them to Photobucket.
I was having the same problem, with the right side being cut off, and that took care of it.

Amelia was the puppy of the day today!!!

[RubyJeansMom]

Congratulations Amelia! It's always exciting when our very own pups are chosen.

Sarah, I'm glad you were able to post your pics, you all look great!

[Oliver & Henry's Mum]

Sarah, I knew that was Amelia yesterday and I do apologize for not congratulating you sooner. It was a rather busy day for me yesterday.

She was a big hit, as she should be.

Thanks!! This actually isn't the first time Amelia has been "famous"...whenever she and her siblings were dropped off at the humane society, she was featured on one of Pittsburgh's biggest radio station's website as their "pet of the week." We actually didn't know about it until after she came home with us and someone recognized her at Petsmart.
