It's hard to wait but take it from me; enjoy not living your life by the clock while you can..once the puppy comes you will find yourself looking at that clock and setting timers to go out to potty, eating…enjoy peaceful sleep and freedom..because once the puppy comes its a prison sentence for a little while (not to sound like a downer..lol) I was so excited to pick up Oakley that I picked him up a few days short of ten weeks; I wish I prepared a bit more mentally for such a huge event..Oakley was a tough cookie...so glad puppyhood is over! I miss the tiny body and cute little wrinkles but that's what pictures are for!! Lol
Congratulations and don't rush it, be excited for it but enjoy the time

Good morning my wife and I returned form vac. Sat. We picked up Ernie yesterday. Ernie is all Basenji he is a 2.5 yr old tri. Ernie is very smart he sets stays rollover plays dead , and upon returning home we found out he loves too chase our two cats, not good. We will have to work on that behavior. I hope too have pictures soon not quite sure how to download yet .Once again thanks for all the welcome e-mails Jeff and Donna
