Pippin. Beagle. Fun loving pup. What words can I use to describe thee. Young. Canine. Dog (for the layperson). All I can say is everybody loves Pippin. I bet you would love her too if you met her. I never thought that I would get a dog. Both Kelly and I grew up with cats, five between the two of us. Dogs are a lot more work. Lately she’s been keeping us up at night because she’s needed to go outside. We love her a ton.

Our favorite games are:

• fetch, with a rubber ducky of course
• tug-of-war, with a rubber ducky (when she doesn’t give me back the ducky from fetch)
• chase, where I chase her around the room or where she chases me
• WWF wrestling, next to the rubber ducky
• wind-sprints outside (naturally she beats me)

Oh, I thought of another word for her: extravert. Check out the videos and then come and say hi to Pippin in Columbus.
