So, this is Lucky.
Lucky my daughter is completely in love with him.
Lucky he has an irresistible face.
Lucky my middle is totally charmed by him.
And Lucky that I refuse to be the bad guy.
Lucky, Lucky dog.
And, damn, damn husband.

Our Hershey was one of those ‘if mom says ok, you can keep her’ dogs. I wasn’t expected to say ‘yes.’ She’s three and about 75 pounds.
Lucky is adorable.

Very cute dog! What a great name Lucky! He has an irresistible face!
Where are pics of Evan with Lucky and of course Jeff with Lucky? That will complete the family dog album. [or is Jeff away on business leaving you with lucky Lucky dog?]
We will take pics of you with Lucky next week.
Awww… Lucky. It’s no Stanley but honestly, he’ll probably get picked on less on the playground w the name Lucky, instead of Stanley. He’s frickin adorable!!! Maybe not to you yet, but he really is!
Well… if it had to be a dog – at least it’s a CUTE dog! :)

My one tip: Make the children help with training, walking and care-giving NOW or you’ll be “Lucky” enough to do all of that yourself for the next ten years or so.

Love the name for the little cutie. And love how husbands seem to bring those cuties home to our children and then say “It’s up to Mom if we keep it” It must be a man thing because both of our pets came into our home that way.

perfect name. your husband? not so much. that sounds like something i would do; i would be a terrible wife to you, jill. we’d never have sex because i don’t like women, and i’d buy dogs on the sly and force you to name them.

Hope you have better luck with your lucky
He really is a very cute dog. And really, really lucky.
Jennifer recently posted..The Bluest Eyes
That level of adorableness will make up for a lot of things. Keep reminding yourself of that the first time he eats your shoes.
amber recently posted..The Moments That Matter
Adorable dog. Good luck with Lucky.
I went through this process too…only it was a kitten (and I’m NOT a cat person). The kids were so excited when Daddy brought it home.
I bit my tongue and tried to love the thing, but after about 6 months, I couldn’t take it. I gave it a fair shot. The kids came out of it unharmed and now we all know FOR SURE, Mom’s not a cat person!
Now a puppy…love them! BUT, it’s like another kid! Good “Luck”

Lucky is cute. And looks like one of those breeds that don’t shed, at least?
angie recently posted..I’m not ready to tell the truth about this…
You’ve got to admit he’s cute. And it’s clear that the kids adore him. I am just laughing about the certain word that Lucky’s name kinda rhymes with…You could be calling the dog and swearing under your breath at the same time.
Lolli recently posted..Never As Easy As It Looks – PSF
I think Lucky is the perfect name. P.S. He’s also lucky he got away from whatever hairdresser got ahold of him. I mean that hairdresser gave him about a zillion different tones on one poor little head, and if he’d stayed in his/her clutches maybe would have ended up with purple and green and pink spikes too.
Just kiddin.
Lucky you don’t know how lucky you are to have this new family, or do you?
Bet, he does, because he looks so happy.
I. love. it.
He is one lucky dog … and you are a better wife than I am.
That is perfect. And? He is really adorable. Also, your husband? Probably not getting lucky.

OK, he’s probably the cutest dog in the world. Seriously. He’s adorable.

What a face. However, he will always be “Howard” to me. Whether your kids can pronounce it or not.

I’m glad you’re enjoying the dog, but I have to disagree on the cute factor…
dogs with hair that get wet in the dog dish, and then hang there and get nasty….
no. thank. you. That dog wouldn’t last 5 minutes in my house. And I almost barfed when I saw that nasty-hairy-mouth near your daughter’s sweet smile. OMG get the mouthwash.

He is adorable. Of course, that’s easy for me to say since I’m admiring him from afar (I don’t have to pick up his poop).
Seeing the kids faces while hugging Lucky shows you are totally screwed!
That dog is just too damn cute.

SOOOO cute. Love him, Lucky.

Lucky he’s yours and not mine. And, I’m talking about the husband here, not the dog! Have to admit though, for a hairy, smelly, money sucking, dirty-floor-making, beast that has to be trained, and fed, and walked, and boarded when you want to travel, he’s pretty cute:)
Aww, he’s so cute. How could you resist? We have an 80 lb. 8 year old lab – Allie – that still acts like a puppy. Some days suck – she’s hairy and Molly (the kid) like to sit in the water bowl, but right now, Allie is laying on my feet, making eyes at me, and making me feel bad for yelling at her earlier. At least your kids are all potty trained; that way, you just have to worry about the dog! ;)
