Meet: The Jolie-Pitt Puppies!

Meet the six little dudes we've been fostering for the last six weeks! Scott was here from the moment of their birth and I really hope he gets an opportunity to share his experiences. I know there were about three weeks of no-sleep before I even got into town. Can you imagine?!

And while now they sleep through the night, they still cause plenty of other trouble now that they're up and able to run, climb, chew and bark. They keep us on our toes, to say the least!

The puppies were born to Angelina, a petite Pit Bull mix who is very affectionate, incredibly bright, a super athlete and a total cuddlebug!

We don't know what the male was, and we won't have a better idea until the puppies are around 5 months and start growing out of their generic puppy faces and bodies.

Either way they have a mother with a wonderful disposition and temperament!

Oh and they're named after Angelina Jolie-Pitt's kids. Scott always wanted to name a Pit Bull "Brad". Brad Pit. So with a mommy named Angelina it seemed a natural progression. Plus, they already did the hard work of coming up with original names!

The puppies are on our petfinder site now (http://www.sophie.petfinder.com/) and will be ready to be adopted when they are 8 weeks old.

So without much further ado, I'm pleased to introduce the little devils that keep our house full of lively energy, laughter and moments of utter awe! Oh, and poop. They keep our house full of lots and lots of poop.

Shiloh
Shiloh is pretty much the cutest puppy ever. And I'm completely unbiased, so you can trust me on this one. She was born all white and now she has fawn eye patches and patterning on her back. She's a quick learner like her momma. Scott has even started basic training with her! Yeah, she's good looking and smart. Some girls have all the luck...


ZaharaShe is such a doll! She's a curious and clever kitty who always seems to wriggle herself through any barrier, no matter how sound, to get to the human on the other side. Then she's content to sit on your lap and chew anything dangling from your person! Oh and her puppy eyes, boy does she flaunt them!

PaxI know you're not supposed to have favorites, but I'll be honest Pax is totally my homeboy. We're pretty much inseparable. Sometimes when he sneaks out of the puppy room, I pretend I don't notice, and then I start running back and forth in the apartment while he chases me! He's totally loving and affectionate like his momma, plus he's got this wild, adventurous, have-no-fear side. Oh and when he eats his belly gets fat and I call him Pax the Pumpkin. Sigh.

Maddox Maddox is the little baby of the bunch. She's so loving and cuddly. I sense she's going to be very human oriented and get a lot of joy from being close to her human companion. She's the quietest of the bunch as she searches out our dirty socks to give us as gifts! How thoughtful! She likes to climb all the way up your shirt to give you kisses. I've yet to meet someone who can resist her and her subdued antics!

Brad Pitt Brad Pitt is a stud. He's so fun and outgoing and adventurous. He was the first to crawl then walk then run and now climb. He leads the rest of the pack into the new and unknown parts of the house. He's usually the first to poop there too. Like I said, trail blazer. He's going to be a very entertaining and engaging young man when he grows up.

Jennifer AnistonYeah, so maybe you were wondering what we were going to call the last puppy since Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt only have four kids. Well, officially, we're calling her Angelina, as in Angelina Junior. But one day I jokingly said we should name her Jennifer Aniston and it stuck! Plus, our vet tech laughed so hard and said "Oh my god that's so cruel!" so that pretty much sealed the deal. Heck, I love this puppy so much, maybe it will even rub off on the real Jennifer Aniston, who I've vehemently been opposed to since, well, since forever.

This Jennifer Aniston is outgoing and a total goof. She's Brad Pitt's female counterpart. They rule the roost together!

So those are the Pitts! Stay tuned for more adventures with our celebrity house crashers!
