I thought this might bring a smile to some one in need. Our Bitch gave birth to 4 healthy puppies last night
We're thrilled. And happy also.

Congrats! But you do realize that puppy pictures are more of a requirement than new guitar pics!

Here you go Taylorgirl.  This is one of the litters we got from our two Golden Retrievers.




What a bundle of fun.

Oh my, so darn cute! Thank you for sharing that. My husband and I have always said we couldn't have a litter of puppies in our house, because we couldn't part with them. We'd have to ensure they were going to a great home.

Those Golden Retrievers are wonderful dogs.  Those puppies look like champions.  I know you're very proud.  I'm afraid I'd be Like TaylorGirl; I'd find it very difficult to part with them.  I know your're having fun.

Although I grew up with dogs in Michigan, later in life I became very allergic to them.  So we are cat people now (still allergic to a degree, but not nearly as much).  Those little guys are adorable.
Taylors:  424-LTD (all koa) and a 114ce that lives with friends in Alaska.  Low maintenance carbon fiber guitars are my "thing" these days, but I will always keep the koa 424.  Several ukulele and bass guitars too. 
*Gone but not forgotten:  a 2001 414ce, 410, 354-LTD twelve string, 314-N, 416-LTD baritone, T5 Classic, 615ce, 2006 GS-K, 1996 (first year) Baby

Hey Earl,
I have a friend who is allergic so they got a poodle hoping for the best.  I have read where a labradoodle is also another choice.  We had one a few years ago and she was one of the smartest dogs I've ever seen.  She almost read my mind.  She even learned to ring a bell I attached to the doorknob (to the back door) to go out.

I understand that Doulos - thanks for the info.  But my wife is NOT a dog person at all, so cats it is.  We are also both busy professionals, so low-maintenance independent cats are a far better choice for us anyway.  Leave some kibble down and the cat flap open, and they are good to go.

I took allergy shots for three years just so I could be around dogs at all (and the Birch trees in my backyard, and the cats).  The shots helped, but I still sniffle after just a few minutes of doggie exposure.  On a scale of 1-4 for sensitivity to dogs, I'm a 5.5!  I still love dogs and dog-sit for the neighbors when they are away, but even "non-allergenic" or "hair versus fur" dogs remain a problem.  I have to take a Claritin and often a Benadryl too just to visit friends who have dogs in the house.
