Chip and Charlie - the original tricolor boy pair

These were my 2 big tricolor boys who were
always the first pair to visit each new group home in
 2002.  Only Chip remains with us.

Chip

From Polk County Animal Services, Chip was skin and bones only when he joined our pack.  We have estimated him to be 7 years old.

Charlie who went to the bridge the end of January 2003

Our handsome boy

At 6 yrs old, he was also our youngest.

Charlie joined our family the Saturday before Labor day in 2001.  His mother was going back to work and felt he would be happier at our house rather than alone all day.  (At that point, Charlie's choices were:  the pound or our house.)

Charlie was our biggest boy - 54 lbs.

He was also our loudest one.

After Charlie's trip to the bridge, Chip's heart was broken.  Once they arrived, he instantly became good buddies with both Chandler and Molly
