Beau Geste Kennels The kennel from which we got Rosie.

Full Name: Nina Rose Tucker
Kennel Name: Featherquest Fluffy :)
Date of Birth: December 29, 2003
First Word: Woof!
First Sentence: "Woof bark, woof woof whimper!" (Translation: "I'm so tired!")
Favorite Color: Gold

Rosie is our cute, fluffy little golden retriever puppy. Actually, she's not very little anymore, weighing in at about 60 pounds compared to about 11 pounds when we got her! That happy day was Sunday, February 21, 2004. We drove out to Acton around noon time and picked her up. Willy said that it was even better than Christmas morning! Whoah! :)

Rosie is now, amazingly, over 6 months old. When we got her, she was only 8 weeks old! (So, a nearly fivefold increase in weight compared to a threefold increase in age! Chubby little pup! And certainly a cute one...)

Since getting her, we've taken zillions of pictures -- 80% of them digital, which, conveniently enough, means that lots can go online! Check out some of them in her dedicated photo album.

Sadly, Rosie cannot accompany us to Taconnet due to their rules against dogs. However, this year we've found a great kennel right near where we stay, so -- with luck -- we'll be able to sneak in a few visits to her!

A few Rosie stats (circa 2004):

Recent Casualties

• six sponges
• one coffee shake
• half a PB&J sandwich
• a wooden spatula
• some ice cream
• a dancing hamster toy

Ball-Catching Percentages

• jumps for it: 90% of the time
• gets it: about 50% of the time

Woohoo! :)
