We got a puppy this weekend! She's a girl! She has white paws and a white belly and a little wrinkled body and the most adorable floppy ears!
We are thinking we will name her Moxie, which according to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, means 1.) Energy, pep. 2.) Courage, determination. 3.) Know-how. Per Wikipedia: This neologism has taken on the meaning of "courage, daring, energy, vision" in American English. As in, This girl's got moxie!
We are very busy (and a little sleepless!) helping Moxie settle in to her new home. It is wonderful for us to have someone to love.
Welcome home, little one!

SOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooo Cute! I love dogs. We have two - a golden retriever named Bridget and a Saint Bernard mix named Zoey. Love pups. They really help with all of the IF related stuff! There is nothing more loving and encouraging than a sloppy, wet dog kiss!
ReplyDeleteI love her Mo! She is beyond adorable (and I think dogs are FABULOUS - I love ours so very much!).
ReplyDeleteOh.My.God. SO CUTE!!! We've been puppy shopping alot over the past few months too. Haven't pulled the trigger yet, but hopefully soon!!
ReplyDeleteMo she is absoutely adorable!
ReplyDeleteShe is adorable! I remember when our Carmella was that little. Now she is a beast! LOL
ReplyDeleteThey are full of energy all the way to old age! We have had three boxers so far and all were CRAZY!! They are really good dogs though. Congrats!

So extremely cute! And boxers are great dogs, SO GLAD YOU GOT A DOG! I honestly don't know how people get through this sort of crap without pets around.
ReplyDeleteI'm off this week, so let me know if you want to get together for a meal or a drink or something, either with the boys or without 'em.
Or we could go to a dog park somewhere! Nellie would LOVE to meet a new buddy, and Moxie looks like a doll. So happy for you!
So cute! Some day, we'll get a dog... We've just got two cats now, so I look forward to living vicariously through you and posts about Moxie's antics. Tell us how you met her.
ReplyDeleteso cute! and just the thing for a broken heart!
ReplyDeleteso cute. we got a puppy a couple weeks ago. so much fun, but so much work.
ReplyDeleteIt is great to have someone to love.
Our dalmatian saced my life during infertility. Dogs are great!!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what I would do without my little guy! She is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteMoxie is just so so cute!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHow precious!!! :)
ReplyDeleteCute! My Dad has boxers and they really are awesome dogs! I love that she still has her floppy ears--personally I don't get the clipping of them :(
ReplyDeleteEnjoy that Moxie!
She is beautiful! My parents have had boxers since I was in high school and I love them. They are wonderful, wonderful dogs. Goofy, friendly, wouldn't hurt a fly, and lots of fun. You'll have a great time with her! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteShe is SO beautiful! I love her!
ReplyDeleteShe is adorable. I love the name Moxie. If you need any lessons is housebreaking let me know.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!! She is absolutely adorable! We've been thinking about getting a pup too. Not sure how the cats would take it though. :)
ReplyDeleteHave fun loving up your new girl!
She is too cute! I'm a hopeless dog lover who endlessly trains, pampers, and loves my American Bulldog, Sweetpea. Knowing Boxers, I bet that Moxie will live up to her name! Enjoy your girl, all the wet sloppy kisses and joyful puppy dances. Take lots of pictures!
ReplyDeleteSo freaking cute! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweetheart!! Congrats on the new addition.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful baby! I just love boxers! She's gorgeous! :)
ReplyDeleteSo, so cute!!! I am staring at my beloved dog Shelly right now - I got her when she was 8 weeks old and she is 13.5 years old now - I love this dog so much. I also have a cat (he hates everyone but me) that is 14 years old. These two know me better than just about anyone. And they are just happy when I am near them - it is the best.
ReplyDeleteShe's soooo cute! And I love the name Moxie! I'm in love!!
ReplyDeleteOMG she is ADORABLE!!
ReplyDeleteLovin the new addition to your family Mo, I'd be lost without my two, even more so than I already am.
They sit patiently by me when I'm sad and lick my tears away when I cry. I heart my dogs!
xxxx
She is soooo adorable!!! Dogs are the best! Enjoy her!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! She's beautiful, and I hope she brings you both a lot of joy and love.
ReplyDeleteOMG! She is adorable!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new puppy! There is nothing better than coming home after a long day to see that sweet face. Dogs are always happy to see you and love you!
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOODNESS!!!!! Do you hear me squealing from Virginia? How cute is she!!! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteOMG the amount of adorable cuteness is amazing! Congratulations and good luck - my experience with puppies tells me that they usually calm down some where around 2 years old! LOL....
ReplyDeleteAwwww, she's adorable! We have two boxers, they are great furbabies! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteForgive me if I double comment - my comment seems to have disappeared.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I'm so happy for you and Will to have a new puppy. She's adorable - and Moxie is a great name. I don't know how I would have gotten through this much without my dog and cats. I'm glad you have something to shower with love and attention!
I love her! <3 <3 <3
ReplyDeleteOMG, PRECIOUS!!!!
ReplyDeleteShe's adorable, congratulations!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful puppy! How exciting ... congratulations on welcoming her into your home (and good luck! She looks ... energetic ;)!).
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! What a cuite! and by the way - you have an excellent looking bookshelf and a very nice taste in furniture (that color co-ordinates nicely with wonder pooch!)
ReplyDeleteWelcome, Moxie! She's soooooo cute! I'm not really a dog person, but puppies ... who can resist a puppy!!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on all the puppy love. :-)
There is no cure for infertility, but the silky soft ears and belly of a puppy come close!!! About as close as you can get! So happy for your newest addition. I LOVE Boxers. Everyone I know who has one would never get any other breed of dog. Congrats Mo and Will! And btw, Moxie might possibly the best puppy name I have ever heard.
ReplyDeletesimply adorable
ReplyDeleteMoxie is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Mo and Will for the new addition to your family!
Yep. Cute. :-)
ReplyDeleteAHHHHHH....love it love it love it. What a cutie! My dog has been my lifesaver, as silly as it sounds. They are a wonderful part of the family!
ReplyDeleteWe also have a boxer. I love that breed. Funny thing about them....they think they are babies forever. Enjoy your new addition!
ReplyDeleteShe's so cute! Hope you have a lot of energy - our former neighbors had a boxer and if she was bored, she found ways to entertain herself. Lets just say they had to get a GIANT mailbox, because the dog liked to eat the mail (especially packages). Boxers are such beautiful dogs. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Mo & Will!!! Moxey is a cutie. I do not know what we would do without our furbaby.
ReplyDeleteAwwww -- congratulations! :)
ReplyDeleteHow adorable! We have a male boxer who looks just like Moxie! Congrats and have fun with her...they grow up so fast!!!
ReplyDeleteLong Time Stalker Warning!
ReplyDeleteOH.MY.GOD! She is SO cute! There is nothing better on earth than a boxer puppy!
I have a 4 year old fawn boxer myself, Roxy:) She is my girl, she makes me smile every single day
I think I have a pic of her on one of my posts: Hot Diggity Dogs
