O.K. ...So here is the deal-
While my beloved Hogans Breeder was down in Florida picking up one of her girls~ She asked me to watch her 5 Five week old puppy's and their Mum, and with Sandy's very generous offer of back up via phone if anything should go wrong~ and my Vet on call if I was in a panic in the middle of the night the girls and I accepted the offer....All the puppy's were/are sold so I figured it wouldn't be a problem as my young girls wouldn't get attached because they all have family's....and it was only for 6 days...so no problem right?
Mum Ginger....( Cotillion Shall We Dance) had complications during delivery and had to be spayed....Little did I know that I would fall madly, totally and entirely in love with her. She is the sweetest, most well trained ruby, with eyes that gaze so deep into your soul that you get lost......( can you tell I'm totally smitten...even just a little...smile)
I cant imagine my life for one minute without her in it, and my breeder has offered her to me. I really thought that our next dog would be a dog we could show- but with my going back to work, we simply don't have the time for the next few years......so- I have to pass, I cant do something half way and there is always time god willing.
We are taking her on a two week trial to make sure that she is a fit for us, and we are a fit for her- but I am scared that its going to be a challenge to fit three dogs on a routine schedule...and I want to give them all the best of what we can- so advice everyone with two or more....what makes things work in your house and any little tips or suggestions are greatly appreciated....
( and a little excitement for us wouldn't hurt either....*wink* )
