Apollo & Helix

I love my two pups. The first...that you all may already know is Mr. Helix and the second is Apollo. They look like they could be brothers....but guess what...they are not. Helix I got at a shelter and he is a mix between a chow, shepherd and a rottie. Apollo is pure breed Shepherd his mama is AKC registered however they aren't sure who the father is, but it was a Shepherd cause she got knocked up at a Police Training Academy (which she was booted out for being too petite) The mama had 9 puppies.

So far having two dogs has it's challenges. Helix is a mama's boy while Apollo is a little devil. Apollo is going on three months and is growing at about 2 pounds per week. He is always hungry and has about 6 cups of food a day. So far so good on the potty training.

One reason we decided to get a second pup was that when we bought the house we got this massive new yard. At least it feels likes it's massive. We got Apollo the same day we bought the house. It may have not been the best idea, but it's wasn't too terrible. Helix accepted him well. They are about one year apart. I think Helix loves having someone around to play with and he seems very happy with his brother. Time will only tell how Helix will handle it when Apollo gets bigger than him.
