last good nights sleep

[leechlake]

After months of waiting I'm picking up a new pup tomorrow am. She's a yellow lab. I have 7 and 9 year old dogs already so I'm rusty on having a pup. I've brushed up on my training books and as I type I'm an expert. By tomorrow I'll be confused, tired, but happy so you all get ready for stupid puppy questions. Just my warning.

2 more weeks and I'll be joining the ranks of the new puppy owners again too! Fortunately, you're 2 weeks ahead of me so you can ask the dumb questions so I don't have to! HAH!

Good luck and HAVE FUN!

Blaze, don't forget to send me pics of the new addition to the family! Good luck with it!

One week update, the pup sleeps from about 9pm - 4am, not bad from day one. We run a little tighter kennel around here than we did ten years ago with our first pup, this one sleeps in the crate in the mudroom. If I recall correctly ten years ago the pup slept in our bed, what we're we thinking. Anyway, blaze good luck, I bet you can't wait.

Whoohoo!! I pick mine up Monday!!

I'm a little luckier, she's already 6 mos, but we'll have her inside to start out with till she gets comfortable around the place.

I've had 2 Goldens and this will be my first Lab, so I'm pretty pumped. She's a Pointing Lab, but she'll mainly be trained for ducks. This summer will be FUN!!!

OK fellas, please allow me a moment of "proud daddy-hood". Here's our new boy, Jake. He's a 9 wk old Drahthaar and he officially became part of the family on Friday, 5/6.

To put in bluntly, the dude's a stud!

Oh those eyes, you are in trouble. He is a cutie our little bundle of joy has those same eyes. Good luck and have fun.

Congrats blaze, our girl is 10 weeks on Friday and she's getting to the point where she can almost outrun me. I taught her come this week using tiny cut up hot dogs and a lead, it worked and she comes now. She's a genius!!! Good luck.
