Please Meet Cooper:

He is Rasputin's new little fur-brother!

Cooper is a Great Pyranees. Lynn and Tod chose him to help watch over their cows.

Look at those eyes!

He is only 7 weeks old and already he is 30lbs!

His huge paws are adorable!

He is a very sweet, calm and gentle puppy. He will be great with the cows.

He fell alseep on Rasputin's palm. Awwwww!

Cooper with his new momma. As you can see he is not fond of being held. We all held him as this may be the last time we physicaly can. He is going to get so huge!

I can't wait to watch him to grow.
