Throwback Thursday - Ben

Ben was the 1st puppy my mom raised, but I still kind of count him but not really. haha I loved this dog like he was "mine" though! He was born April 28th, 2011 and came June 29th, 2011. He was actually a surprise to me and I didn't find out until the day he was coming! :) He was raised by my mom in honor of my brother Ben who was serving in the Navy. :) He had his IFT October 2012 and sadly was released a few months later for a soft trachea, but the good news is we got to adopt him! :)

the night he came! :)

He's so adorable!!
