Ernie

ernie-002314
I’m new to this whole blogging thing, so please cut me some slack while I work the kinks out. I moved to Northern VA from South Carolina in July of 2014. I was 1 of 2 littermates, and my brother Eddie decided to plant his roots in Mount Pleasant, SC. That’s a great excuse for a road trip!

I guess the biggest thing I would like you to know about me is that I’m well-balanced. I’m always willing to show that I am one tough puppy but I’m totally comfortable showing my softer, thoughtful side, like when I carefully contemplated each and every step trying to conquer stairs. That’s not puppy nervousness on display there. That’s being deliberate! I think this balance is going to serve me well. No one likes a wimp who won’t stand up for himself, and no one likes the over-the-top macho type who refuses to show emotion. I’ll keep you posted on how it works for me!

My Basics

  • Full Name: Rightly So Earnest Companion (Ernie)
  • Born: 4/28/14
  • Parents:
    • Sire: Ch. Rightly So Bust A Move
    • Dam: Ch. Rightly So Wild Magnolia Rainbow

My Health

Hey, I’m a puppy! I read the stories of Hank and Otto and walk away thinking that is some scary stuff. Surgery. Cancer. Ouch. Forget all that. I’ll just stay a puppy forever.

Some of My Favorite Pics

Here are a few of my favorite pics, arranged from most recent to oldest. Hank likes to say he was a good looking puppy. That’s just living in the past, man. When I remind him that I am a good looking puppy, he seems to get annoyed and chases me around. I love being chased, so I just have to remind him again. And again. And again.
