    I picked Buddy out of his litter(10 wks old) at the local Humane
    Society because all the other pups hid behind him when we
    came over to check them out. Buddy just stood there and looked
    me right in the eye.I picked him up & hugged him. My daughter
    said he sure has" a lot of heart". How right she was. He was
    my heart dog for 9 wonderful years.

    I picked Smokey out of his litter(8 wks old) because he was a
    doll baby & he was the only one who was fast asleep in the
    baby pen.All the others were climbing all over him to get my
    attention.They were all cute but Smokey seemed like a very
    mellow personality and he is a very gentle soul.

    As many others have said, I didn't pick Chester he picked me. We went to look at his brother actually, but the breeder decided to take them both out of the pen so that I could see them interact. The dog we went to see was spastic. All over the place and into everything. Wild child. Not the dog for us we said. Chester on the other hand crawled up my body and hid in my hair at my neck and made sweet puppy noises. I was hooked. I wanted this sweet scared puppy, not the rambunctious trouble maker! Well, needless to say I was SUCKERED! Within hours of his arrival at our home, Ches became a monster!! I sure do lobe him though and I wouldn't take a million bucks for him.

    Millie kinda chose me too. By the same tactics. You'd think I'd learn?! She was at Petsmart, in her crate wagging that curly tail, so I had to take her out and hold her "just for a minute" . Yeah right. She's a great girl!

    We picked Malone (or should I say he picked us ) because out of the three pups, he was the one that played the longest. The other two zonked out, and he just wanted to be loved and played with!!

    We had our heart set on a female, but he wiggled his way into our hearts sooo fast!!

    Sadie was curled in the corner of a large outdoor pound kennel so I couldn't see her, but I could tell she was cute, sweet, and scared. I asked the lady inside if I could look at her and she handed me the papers to adopt her. I was searching for weeks for a dog so I wasn't about to rush into anything but this pound seemed awful so I figured if she wasn't the right dog I'd bring her to a good shelter.

    The minute she crawled out of the kennel I knew she was the dog I was looking for.

    The way she looked at me.

    The other dogs were so playful but Kia just sat in a corner, looked at me and thumped her tail a little bit.

    There was no way I was leaving without her.
