Hi everyone! This is attempt number 3 in posting a new thread, so hopefully it works. Curious as to why it's so hard to post here.... Not complaining though.
Anyhow, my fiancee and I recently got a new puppy. He is now about 4.5 months old and a joy. He is half Rottweiler and half Labrador (hence Rottador) and we named him after my favorite St. Louis Blues hockey player. Dorky, I know, but I wanted a tough name like Bowser or Brutus. She wanted a "cute" name like Max or Cody. All good names, but we couldn't agree so I jokingly said, "What about Oshie?" (after TJ Oshie) and she loved it!
Oshie definitely exhibits the attributes of both breeds he possesses. From the Labrador, he shows the love of swimming, retrieving and loyalty to family (at this stage of his life, almost seperation anxiety). He also loves tearing up any tissues or rugs we happen to leave out. He also is very good with kids and other dogs although he loves to jump up on other dogs and is extremely excitable. On the other end of the spectrum he has the Rottweiler tendencies, too. He is so stubborn and hilariously tries to herd children at times. He isn't a cuddle type either and likes to be near, but not cuddling with us. He has the Rottweiler markings, but the body of a Lab and garners a ton of attention at parks and pet stores.
So without further ado, here is Oshie! (these are all when he was about 2-3 months old):
