For Thanksgiving two great bloggers are hosting fun events.  Frankie Furter, Mayor of Blogville wants to know what we want to give our peoples for Christmas & the lovely Miss Minna Krebs wants to hear our adoption story.

Well for Christmas I’d like to get my boy John the new fancy-schmancy phone he would like, the HTC Evo

For my boy Jack I would like to get lots of pair of custom made Converse.

For my dad person I would like to get a wooden canoe that he has always wanted.

And for my mom person  I would like to get this cool book reading thingy called a Kindle.

 If I had the green papers I would buy all of these to make my people as happy as they always make me.

Now for my adoption story.

My people looked for a long time to come up with a doggie that was the right fit for the family.  After about a year of research they decided on a minature schnauzer!

My people didn’t really know about doggie rescues groups, as silly as that seems now.  They found a very reputable breeder, but didn’t have the funds to purchase a puppy.  Well my mom person called in on a radio show and won front row center seats to a Neil Diamond concert.  She was able to sell those on E-bay for enough money for a purebred schnauzer puppy.

4 Weeks Old

My mom was an all white miniature schnauzer who was bred with an all black miniature schnauzer.  She had 8 black babies!

My mom person originally wanted a girl puppy & wanted to name her Pansy.  All of the girl puppies were spoken for, so they picked me.  Since my dad person is German & schanuzers are German they decided to give me a German name & Oskar stuck!

So there you have it, the presents that I would get my people and the story of my adoption.  I hope you will all play along!  Don’t forget to stop by to thank Frankie & Minna Krebs for hosting such great Thanksgiving events.
