    |    Here's Devon... Our Faithful
    Golden Retriever... and friend... | 
   
 
  
      | 
    Name: Devon 
    Born: August 1998 
    Gender: FemaleMy wife Tanya and I met in Devon, PA in August 1993... 
    She thought of the name... how sweet!  | 
   
 
  
    |    Introducing TJ (dark) and Weenie
    (light)...  | 
   
 
  
      | 
    Name: TJ 
    Born: March 1989 
    Gender: Male 
    My first and middle initials!Name: Weenie 
    Born: April 1989 
    Gender: Male 
    A young boy said he looked thin like a weenie... perfect!  | 
   
 
  
    |    We brought Devon home December
    1998...  | 
   
 
  
      | 
    My wife called one day and told me to hurry home from work... we're going
    to look at a puppy! I said 'absolutely not'!!! The rest is history...  
    Everyone loves her!  | 
   
 
  
    |    ...not exactly everyone... | 
   
 
  
      | 
    TJ's not to thrilled with the new living arrangements... | 
   
 
  
    |    The battle for territory begins
    immediately... | 
   
 
  
      | 
    ...every move was watched closely by TJ... he's not about to lose his
    territory to anyone! | 
   
 
  
    |    Christmas at the DeLia
    household... a time of sharing... | 
   
 
  
      | 
    Devon, 
       Do not even "think" of taking one of TJ's boxes!!! TJ won't back
    down to any dog... no matter how big... He may be a cat but he's no P____!!! (I meant
    "pushover"... C'mon)... | 
   
 
  
    |    It just doesn't get any
    "cuter" than this... | 
   
 
  
    |    Oops... I was wrong... It doesn't
    get any cuter than "this"!!! | 
   
 
  
      | 
    Golden Retriever's are great with kids... The neighborhood kids knock on
    our door to see if Devon can come out and play... Devon thinks she's one of them! We have
    two Golden Retrievers living directly behind us... Clark and Sammy (Samantha)... Saturday
    mornings I find them on our deck looking into the kitchen... Seeing the 3 of them run
    around is relaxing... until they start digging up our newly laid sod and landscaping!!! | 
   
 
  
    |    My Parents In-Law have a Standard
    Poodle... Pushkin...  | 
   
 
  
      | 
    Here's Pushkin stopping by for a visit... He's incredibly hyper and
    antagonistic! After becoming tired of the unrelenting abuse Devon finally bit Pushkin's
    ears and would swing from them! Quick note: Standard poodles were bred as hunting dogs...
    very fast and powerful... they're wolves in sheeps clothing... be careful! 
    Notice the refridgerator is loaded with the foam characters found on this site... | 
   
 
  
    |    Devon inspired this 'crayola'
    picture... | 
   
 
  
      | 
    Not one of my best works... but at least it's consistent with the theme of
    this page... If this were really Devon she would be halfway across the lake by now!
    Goldens LOVE the water... her 2nd favorite activity is going to the beach with us and
    diving head first into the surf... her 1st favorite is tearing up the family room
    carpeting!!!  |
