    meet Mr. Chip

    At least, that may be his name. It usually takes a few days to decide. Wife likes "Blaze", I like "Chip" or Chipper". This is Pipers great nephew, and he is fun. Travels well, is on a schedule so habits are predictable, likes to play (my arm is chewed pretty well), and likes to kill toys.

    After the Lugnut, we don't seem to have many small stuffed toys, so off to the Pet Expo again. He seems to be calmer than Lugnut, but it is early days.

    It's amazing how much you can miss the feel of a dog chewing your shoes while you are walking.  He found a bird wing on the roadway and carried his trophy home.  

    The breeder turned down one couple on this pup because they were too old-the breeder felt this is a dog that should be in the field.  The couple were probably younger than me and wife.  But we have young hearts-why else would we take on a pup again?

    What a cutie! Love both names maybe Chip can be his first name and Blaze his middle name? Looking forward to hearing your stories and seeing more pics. Thanks for sharing.

    Hello Mr Chip! :) You are quite the little cutie!

    What a cute little guy!  Your wife looks pretty happy with him in her lap, Doug.  You'll have to have to retire if you want to have equal time!  Wink

    I think Blaze is a really cool name, but I like the sound of Chip -- it makes me think of chocolate chip (an excellent ice cream), and it goes with the brown spots Springers often have in their fur.  

    Can't wait for more photos!

    He sure is  cute little guy!  I'm partial to the name Blaze, but I have a bias since that was the name of a previous dog.
