Bacchus and Kylie




This story is about Bacchus and Kylie. We were foster parents because we had a crazy Jack Russel puppy who tore everything up. We thought by fostering that we could give her a playmate. The second time we went back to Petsmart to pick up a dog to foster they had a litter of Lab/Sheppard puppies. At the time, they thought they were 21 weeks old. We really wanted to take them all, but it just wasn't possible. So, we took the two white siblings, a boy and girl, home. We didn't intend on keeping them, but as you can see form the first pictures they just sucked us in. I have hundreds of pictures of the two of them. They are best friends and like our children.  We found out right away they were actually somewhere around 9 weeks old. They went from 20 pounds to around 60 pounds and we love them even more! They now are the proud owners of a 1200 square foot ranch home, with a fenced in backyard, storm door with doggie door, indoor and outdoor automatic water fountains, and a king size bed, along with two huge tubs of toys which they enjoy tremendously. They sleep in bed with us every night and greet every visitor at the door. They are excellent dogs. We chose to go to Dick Russell in Baton Rouge for training and he did wonders. They both listen very well, even though they have their quirks. Kylie is very sweet, she doesn't like yelling, and she likes to sleep in bed all day long. Bacchus is the man of the house when my husband is not home, but he is also a huge baby. He likes to sit in your lap and just wants everyone's attention.


We love them very much and don't know what life would be without them! --Submitted by Mallory Meaux
