The Story of Diesel

For Valentine's Day in 2014 my boyfriend, Evan, decided to buy me a 6 week old puppy. Someone from his school had a large litter of German Sheppard/Black Lab puppies for sale and he knew I loved puppies! When we got to the house that the puppies were at, they escorted us to their barn. When they turned on the barn lights around thirty puppies from two different litters come sprinting out of a pile of straw bales.  They were all trying to jump up on our legs to grab our attention but I noticed one just sitting off to the side waiting patiently.  I went to pick him up and he snuggled right under my chin and I knew he was the one! He was black with a white strip on his chest and white on his paws. They let us take him home that night and on the way home Evan and I had to think of a name. I had already had a name in mind and Evan agreed it was a good fit, Diesel. It was the middle of winter so we kept our little 6 pound puppy in the house. I started teaching him tricks as soon as possible. He was best friends with all of the cats we had and he was about the same size! He definitely wasn't the shy, calm little puppy that he looked like when I picked him out. Today, Diesel is two years old and my little boy weighs 110 pounds.
