cassie Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Not long now Dory yay!!! My OH will be so jealous, he was pushing for a Rottie this time around. He'll have to make do with pictures for now :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minimax Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Yes that's what I was thinking, but after doing some searching, it's apparently a popular boys name in Sweden So why not? And of course a Star name tag will be a must. You'll get used to people assuming he's a girl. Even when you say "His name is Nova" they will say "Oh isn't she sweet" and you'll say "yes, he is" and they will say "oh, a boy, sorry" and you'll smile sweetly whilst stabbing them in your head :laugh: My female pugs name is Max, I go through this regularly~ Dory gets this ALL the time, and she is a GIRL with a GIRL'S name (okay, it's a fish too :laugh: ) I think because she is scruffy and has a beard they assume boy. (Aaannnnd her constant cocking her leg on things probably doesn't help with the image either. :D ) PS....FIVE HOURS TO GO..... Thank god I'm at work, I'd be picketing the airport terminal by now. Hope pup wasn't coming from Sydney, I've been watching the radar and there are lots of holding patterns and not many planes going in or out due to the fog :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whippytails Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Happy puppy day Dory. Yes was your pup coming from or via sydney? Hope not so that its not caught up in the crazy fog delays. Hopefully this weekend we will be inundated with puppy pics as it seems this week is the week for a few, YAY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosepup Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) People think Moose is a girl, even after I say his name. I think it might be a small dog thing. Wooohoooo Dory!!! Can't wait for pics! Edited May 29, 2013 by moosepup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dory the Doted One Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Flight is delayed by half an hour, not too bad. I'm sitting at the freight waiting. :lol The guy said most people go to harbor town (shopping). I told him I just paid for a puppy, how much money did he think I had. :lol I have a book. And an hour half is nothing after 16 weeks of waiting. Cassie: Hubby can snuggle her anytime. That's SNuggle, not to be confused with sMuggle. ;) Hoping I get to see her litter mate while i'm here. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cassie Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Did they travel in the same crate? Take a snap of them together if you can! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dory the Doted One Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 The other puppy was from a different breeder, Willows sister went on to Kangaroo Island. She is an AMAZING puppy. Very smart. Takes her time with new things. She's playing with tennis ball and getting more comfortable with Dory. Dory seems really pleased to have Willow. Gives her space, tries to get her to play and ignored Willow if Willow gets overwhelmed. The cats. Well. They are freaked out and cautious, but want to look too. Neither of them have tried to strike at Willow. Willow is verrrry cautious, she's freaked out about them staring at her. But she just sits with me and watches them. Pictures soon! I've been concentrating on smooth introductions first. Oh. And she is super, beautiful. Most beautifullest looking Rottie I've had. :) I want to gobble her up and kiss her to bits. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melina Bea Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Willow sounds great!! Can't wait to see a pic! i feel a bit bad, I didn't focus on instructions from the beginning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dory the Doted One Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Isn't she bewdiful? :love::love::love: I'm trying to resize another one, but this one should hold you over. :laugh: We've had a poo in the house already (this is what happens when 17yrs are on puppy duty). The cats have finally decided a new puppy ain't so bad. HAH...What till tomorrow when she's more comfortable. And Dory continues to think she pretty neat too. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dory the Doted One Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 It didn't take her long to find the tennis balls (or my shoe laces. :laugh: ) I'm so besotted. I've completely rejigged my "no big dogs on the furniture rule"....she's snoozing on the couch next to me. So tired, she didn't even try to steal my dinner. I didn't expect to feel so clucky about a puppy like I am about Willow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dory the Doted One Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Dory has been so good, so far. When Willow was feeling a little bit overwhelmed by Dory, Dory would back off and walk away or act disinterested. Now we just have to make sure Dory doesn't play so rough! We have had a little bit of resource guarding (me), Dory has now learnt that that ain't on and we are all good again. Did I mention I'm a bit in love with Willow?

whippytails Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 She is stunning. Sounds like a well adjusted pup that isnt fazed by much. A credit to her breeder and breeding. Seems like she might take to the show ring no worries at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
