I'd avoid Max, its a good name, but there are so many dogs called Max these days you're likely to call the name and get five at your feet.

I can highly recommend giving your preferred names a big yell out to try it out for style (in the privacy of your own home of course).

I was seriously considering calling Ren, Blair. Then I did the shout out and realised that when said loud, it can sound like Blah. Given that herding is one of my dog sports I decided the last thing I wanted was for the herding judges and spectators splitting their sides with laughter as I call 'Blah, Blah, get round' or some other command. They would think I've gone mental. Shame, I still really like the name, maybe for a later dog that would be doing so much distance work.

Huga, you are very creative! The lead came out well. And I will definitely check out Big W tomorrow for some toys. And also the reject shop. :hug: Some shopping will make the last day go fast. Only two more sleeps!! Starting to get very excited and a little bit nervous.

Here is the collection of toys I have. Of course some I've bought for when Archie is bigger. I also have bowls which aren't shown and a blankie which I left with the breeder at our last visit.

I like Baxter, it reminds me of Will Farell though.

Me too! I really like the name though and that movie is Hilarious.

I have a 7 month old Golden Retriever, jealous that you will be experiencings fluffy, gorgeous Golden Retriever Puppyness.... make sure you take heaps of photos and especially videos because they get so big so quick, my boy is 28kg already! (and he's definitely not fat)

Everyone else's puppies sound so gorgeous too :hug:

I can't wait to find out which girl is ours, hopefully not too much longer.

Naomi the Tug-a-jug (i think thats what it's called) is awesome. Our boy loves trying to get his kibble out of it. Can't wait to see puppy photos

Naomi and Huga- Only one more sleep! Bet you can't wait!!!

We are getting my mum and partners dog this afternoon. We will be looking after her for 11 days while they go on a cruise. She is a cocker spaniel so alot smaller then a golden retriever but it will still be good practise (daily walks, playing, feeding etc) :(

Yep only one sleeeeeep! :rolleyes: Very excited here! Can't believe after 20 years of wanting a dog I will finally own my first pup tomorrow.

D&R, the Tug-a-Jug is awesome! I thought I could only get it online but then I saw it in stock at a pet store here.

Nadine, cocker spaniels are soooo cute! I hope you have fun with her. It should make the wait go quicker.

Huga, can't wait to see pics tomorrow!!!! How excited are you? I won't be able to sleep tonight!!

Awesome! Sid can bond with you. :laugh:

Because OH does uni long distance he is usually away Mon - Fri. He is sad that Archer might bond better with me because he will be away so much. Of course, I don't mind. :rolleyes:

We had a great time with Tim from Kouzoku this afternoon/evening and had lots of puppy cuddles :( .

Anyway - introducing our little lovely - Kouzoku Ziva

This pic wasn't too good - extracted from a video

Tim was originally keeping her to be shown and later on used for breeding, but his health isn't fantastic at the moment so he wanted her to go to a great home and he chose us :( . She'll be on the main register. I wasn't keen on an entire dog - but given she was being kept for her potential, we'll wait and see how she looks at 5 months. If she has potential - we might get in to showing (I'm going to need heaps of help there!).

Ziva's great aunt was the first JS to win an agility title - so hopefully she has a little of that in her as well!

Her homecoming will be first week in April - I can't wait :thumbsup:

I'll post some more puppy pics in a sec
