Gotcha Day 5

[Anne & Mr. Haley]

Five years ago DH and I drove to a distance town to choose our new family member. I had fallen in love with this image

but I went with an open mind.
The puppies were all in a long hallway and came to see the new people. They opened the gate and one puppy came to me and would not leave me. It was the one in the image. Haley came home with us that day.
His first time ever on grass was when we got out of the car at home and DH set him down in the yard.

Haley has changed our lives forever and it has been for the better.
Happy "Gotcha" Day sweet Haley.

"Can I play with it now?"

Happy Gotcha Day, Haley!! You are one handsome Doodle!

[DonMarie and Picco]

From cute puppy to handsome guy!  Happy Gotcha Day Haley!  

We consider our "Picco Day" (gotcha day) more important that his birthday.

Happy Gotcha Day!

Happy gotcha Day, Mr. Haley!

[Anne & Mr. Haley]

Haley and I want to thank everyone for their Gotcha Day wishes and nice comments.  We had a great day.  The sun was shinning and the temperature broke freezing.  Haley worked on his stuffie, we went for a ride and played fetch.
