TheCheekyMonster Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 What a great thread, I've not got long to wait now, we're picking up our baby on Saturday - squeeeee - we were so lucky looking at some of the posts here, we've had a really quick turnaround, we've been looking for the right puppy for some time, but when we found her, well it's only taken just on a week the hardest thing for me is, although I've done all the leg work, Paris is for my mum, so I don't even get to have her with me but I do get visiting rights :laugh: Im so jealous if you!!, ever since i met a real life frenchie at my first show I WANT ONE!!

Summerside Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Border Collie - not long until they're born now, mum will be going for her final scan soon. Hoping everything goes well! How exciting! Not much more of a wait for you then, though it must feel like forever. Don't know how you can be so patient. its all good news from the scan! He is starting to push the boundaries, he is into stealing things at the moment socks, shoes lol anything ... But he is still a Goofball and such a character!! :-) He sounds adorable, especially since its not my shoes going missing :laugh: Oh the fun times ahead! OMG.. cutest thing I've seen all day. Love the name too. Thanks CW EW! We have to agree, but we're bias :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well miss Mumma-to-be is so fat that she couldn't wriggle too much, so she had an X-ray rather than another ultrasound. Originally she was expecting 6...now she's having nine, and sooner than expected by the looks of it. Her cervix started dilating a bit, so we're expecting them this week rather than next week. It's her first litter, so hoping everything goes well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rilla-My-Rilla Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Sorry I haven't replied, been a little too busy for my liking lately :) Well the puppies have arrived! All black and white and healthy! Time is dragging sooooo slowly now. I thought it wouldn't, since I've been waiting indefinitely, now I have dates I thought I'd be fine. I was fine all through the pregnancy, it seemed to actually go really quickly. Never mind - just have to keep reminding myself that time hasn't slowed down, and eight weeks really isn't that long. :) I'm so excited though! Must be nearly time for you to pick your pup, Summerside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summerside Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 That's great news! Do you have a preference for girl or boy? No we don't have long to go, only 2.5 weeks! We pick her up 20th July Is it normal to be a little nervous now? I've been reading Ian Dunbar's books and I'm getting scared I'll bugger up a perfectly good puppy! This'll be the first puppy we've raised and while the info he gives is great, he makes everything seem so critically important and missing something will result in an unruly and uncontrollable pet Sorry, overreacting but just want to make sure we try to do things right :) Anyway here are some new pics of Rogue at 5 & 6 weeks. The latest ones I'm getting from the breeder all have captions along the lines of "Rogue eating my..." etc :laugh: Oh the joys of a Stafford pup teething I guess They get big so quick!

All I can say is don't stress, trust yourself, and enjoy the puppy phase because it goes soooo fast! I'm sure you'll be fine with your new little one :D At this stage I'm after a female, but really don't care if I get a boy. ETA: Your little baby looks very cute too :) Edited July 3, 2012 by sjp118 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
