He's finally home! Yesterday we drove up to the Walkerton area to pick up our little runt. Lita and Gary at Black Jack Kennels had him and all his belongings ready when we arrived.
He played with his rope for a while on the way home and then slept for about 2 hours solid. He wasn't fussy at all with the ride. We were a bit worried that he'd be scared and cry most of the way but he took it all in stride.
I think I was dreading his bath more than him because although he wasn't exactly LOVING the situation, he was pretty cool with it and took it in stride. He didn't try and squirm or wiggle away at all. He had more of a 'lets get this over with' look on his face. Good boy!
He ended up spending the night with Melissa on the couch then 3 more hours with me in the bed snoozing because he wasn't too happy with the crate situation. He howled and tried to bark for a while but because it was his first night here, we gave in and allowed him the comfort of being beside us.
Oh, Lita and Gary, thanks so much for everything. You were both very accommodating and helpful. We'll keep you updated and send you off new pictures from time to time.

CONGRATULATIONS GUYS!! He's sooo cute! We can't wait to meet him:)
The crate training days..i remember those--kinda heartbreak'n but its better than puppy poop everywhere--he'll get used to it, it just takes time.
Talk to you both soon,
LA:)
Oh LA have we got a crate story to tell you ... he broke our hearts this morning leaving for work.
We waited outside the door for about 20 minutes and he was still going nuts. Melissa had tears in her eyes. Needless to say it was a quiet and uneasy drive to work this morning.
Melissa came home 2 hours later to his rescue.
We're arranging our schedules so that there's someone here all the time. He's just too small right now to be left alone for an entire day.
The crating is no problem - he slept all night fine - the difference was that we brought it into our room so we're close by.
D, the puppy pee is pretty abundant but he's clever enough already to warn us.
He's even getting to the newspaper for #1's and #2's when he can't get outside.
He's great on the grass but vet doesn't want him out there much until all shots are complete (4 more weeks).
Were you offering to Puppy-Sit?
I'll let you in on a little something - sometimes Crom's bombs were courtesy of Sole Woodworks.
We were correct thinking you'd mistaken them for Crom's.
*sigh* ...40 Potato Chips.
ahhhhhh....you guys had separation anxiety:( Mel to the rescue..
What a good mommy!! Good practise eh?!
How much does he weigh now?
LA:)
Yes yes Mommy to the rescue for sure! My heat broke in a million pieces when I saw him look up at me when I walked in the door....:(
He probably weighs close to 4 lbs now I think....How cute is that? We will find out for sure when we take him to the Vet.
:)
i hate it when my heat breaks
Very FUNNY!!!
Hi Dwayne,
What a cute little puppy,just looking at his little face warms your heart.I think it would be wise not to let Darrin stay with him as it would not be fair to you or your wife to have to deal with two puppys at the same time.
LOVE TO THE THREE OF YOU,
KAY
