Before leaving Utah Eryka spontaneously asked if we wanted to meet her a house to play with puppies! How could we say no! lol We love puppies! We instantly fell in love with the littlest black boy with a white goatie and white on its neck! Cashy named him Gucci! Love it! He is so dang cute! So call and snuggly! These are Cavapoo puppies and absolutely precious! Eryka had her eye on the little girl! The runt! She was the sand color one! It was hard to get us out of there! They had 8 puppies and we held every single one of them a few times each! lol Cashy however was stuck on Gucci! Gucci loved him! He would lay on Cash's shoulder and snuggle him! It was precious! As you can see daddy in the bottom corner pic.... he was not having it! lol So we walked away no new puppy but had the best time falling in love! Maybe one day we will get a 2nd fur baby but until then we will love on our Perfect Ruby!
