This is my Dad. His name is Ted.

His official name is 'Coppertop's Live Wire'.

He is a super champion. Hunting, obedience, agility, you name it, he's got gazillions of titles.

 

Here I am at 2 1/2 weeks old, with my mom, and my 4 brothers and 3 sisters.

My mom, Derby, is BEAUTIFUL and she has a very loving disposition. She is an International Champion - her official name is Shyan's Place Your Bets.

I'm the one with the red ribbon.

I'm known as 'Little Red Boy'.

And here I am at 3 1/2 weeks old. See me, back there, with the red ribbon?

This is when my new Daddy and Mommy came to visit just before they left for Hawaii.

I made sure to leave my mark so they would choose me. I tied my red string around my Mommy's heart by licking her finger, even though I was so little and could hardly see.

Now I'm 6 1/2 weeks old.

They call me 'TJ', short for Ted Junior, because they say I look like my dad.

My new Mommy and Daddy came for a visit. I'd love to go home with them but I have to wait two more weeks.

This is Bill, my new Daddy. Look at that smile.

I can tell I'm going to be a spoilt little boy.

This is my new Mommy, Michelle.

She thinks she knows everything about raising pups because she's been reading so many books. Ha, ha! I have news for her ...

 

How can anyone possibly resist me??

They wished I would stay little like this.

No way, I'm going to be a big guy. But I promise to stay cuddly.
