Hi,

My family and I just welcomed a beautiful 8-week old APBT named Bella into our home.

My wife and I have two kids, a boy who just turned 7 and a girl who's almost 2. We've also got an aging but majestic cat named Azreal and a adolescent Fox Terrier named "Mack the Knife"

This is my first time having a Pit Bull in the house and the first time since reaching adulthood that I've had a wee baby puppy in the house.

She's amazingly lovable but a more than once (in just the past 2 days) my wife and I have found ourselves asking "What did we get ourselves into?"

I look forward to talking to you all and perhaps seeking some much-needed advice that could just prevent me from tearing my hair out.

I'm in Anna, as far north as you can go in Collin County.

I moved here a few years ago from Garland, actually.

*smile* I know where Anna is. Years ago, before we moved from Plano to Garland, we actually looked at buying land in Anna using the Texas Veterans act and having a house built there. But we settled in Garland instead. We have been here ever since. That was 27 years ago.
