Congrats Erny on finally picking a name!

Mandela is an awesome name.

Our RR girl is Honeycreek Lady Cosworth, call name Sierra after the cars Sierra Cosworth.

The breeder asked us what we had in mind and as we are Ford obsessed it was either that or Falcon!!

I must admit I do miss the squishy face photos, but at 6 months Sierra has almost grown out of her wrinkles.

They do hate the cold dont they! Sierra wont sleep unless she is firmly wrapped in her blanky, she gets quite vocal if she isnt!!

Good luck with everything training wise.....RR's are terrors!!

:hitself: RR's are Terrors? :rofl: surely that's an understatement :rofl:

Aaah, yes...heeling beautifully one second..then...oooh..there's a butterfly :hitself: hang on...I'm bored...can I play tug on your arm?

hehe...enjoy... and I'm all for names with many syllables...never had a problem calling Jemima!

Finally the boy has arrived :clap:

I like Mandela but for me I would have called him Nelson( as in Mandela)

Phoebe and Gracie want to know when is Mandela going to come over for a visit Aunt Erny? We only live a little distance away now(Cranbourne)

You will have years of fun with him

Hi IR :happydance:

I hope you are now well settled into your new (and more local) home :thumbsup:. And yes, a visit definitely is in order. We have been very busy with general socialisation and my little Man is doing quite well. A little shy of other dogs at first, but it doesn't take him long to come out of his shell and want to mix with other puppies of all shapes and sizes. It's a pity the weather has been so cold though - that he is a RR it's a given that he'd feel the cold, but that he's also so young he feels it all the more. I need to hunt down some PJ's (Robbo's didn't have any) that will suit him for the interim.

I haven't even had a chance to visit at my parents' place with him yet. Mainly due to the weather. They are not "indoor dog" people and though he will be allowed inside in his crate, it would be nice for a bit of sunshine so he can have a romp around their property. After yesterday's spot of sunshine (we would have visited Mum and Dad then, but he'd already had a huge day and was tired) I was hoping today would give more of the same. Perhaps later this afternoon will find the sunshine poking out from behind the clouds. Although given the cold and rain we've had for most of the morning, I could be being hopeful. If not, then I might take him out this afternoon and go for our first actual train ride (after having made a couple of progressive visits to the station over the last few days).

lol at the Bert and Erny suggestion :rofl:

:laugh: ...... I didn't even 'click' to this one!!!! I think I have puppy-brain at the moment!! :rofl: Thank you for the giggle, ILTBY!

And Haven!!!!! What are you doing here!!!! You keep giving big silent lapses and I keep thinking "ahhh .... this is IT". But yet nothing happened? Or is it simply that you haven't had time to adjust your baby calendar in your sig???

Is this one holding on like I did? (I was 2 weeks over-due.) Perhaps she doesn't want to go out, get a job and earn her keep and figures she likes it exactly where she is right now!! Easy street!! :rofl:.

Nope, bubs is here, I got home from the hospital yesterday. I thought about posting in the training section for you guys because I figured you wouldn't frequent the preggers thread in OT, but I thought it might be a bit too naughty.

She was born on Friday 15th at 2.11am and weighed 10lb 1/2oz. We have named her Chimaera (pron. Ky-mee-rah) Michelle.

There are 3 pics in the preggers thread (scroll down the page) here for anyone who wants to check out what a cutie she is :rofl:

Training is going well so far, Dad gets all the pooey nappies :rofl:

Fantastic and Congratulations !!!! Sorry ..... no I don't visit the bubs threads. I just figured you'd post here in the training forum where we tend to congragate :(.

I'm posting a copy of one of Chimaera's piccies here. It's my thread so I can :rofl:. And I don't think Troy will mind for this moment. :wink: :o.

She is absolutey gorgeous, Haven. And I see that she is in training for "voice projection" in preparation for running obedience classes! Glad to see you have your priorities right too. Pooey nappies must definitely have to be a 'guy' thing to do, seeing as you did all the rest of the hard work getting her here :).

Well done! :rofl:.

I'll be looking forward to meeting her :whip:.

Cheers!

Erny

Erny- you need to go and visit my dear friend Kate at Pet Goods Direct on the Sth Gippy Hwy in Cranbourne( near Bunnings etc) and you will find every kind of doggy gear you would ever dream of. Tell her your a friend of IR( use my real name) and you will be well and truly looked after.

Can't wait to meet this young lad - wait till the pergola is finished though as you might end up with one very muddy puppy as Phoebe and Gracie are now Mudlarks too :laugh:

Thanks IR. I did a quick visit there shortly after bringing Mandela home ..... but wasn't looking for PJ's at the time. I expect to be passing by there on the way home from a consult tomorrow, so will try to stop in. I will certainly ask for Kate and mention your name.

I'll wait 'til your pergola is done. :)

In fact it sounds as though you have a fair amount happening to the house at the moment, so I'll let things happen there first. Must admit that my days are filled up with socialisation excursions at the moment. Did the train ride thing yesterday - he enjoyed it and of course the passengers all wanted me to sit next to them so they could pat him (more socialisation :laugh:). Paid a visit to the Moorabbin Airport and watched planes and helicopters flying around too. He was a bit "what the ??!!" for the first minute, but quickly settled down and then decided to snooze in my arms. Another 'tick' off the list :love:. Tullamarine is next. As is a trip to CBD Melbourne, experiencing lifts in buildings etc.
