Milka
arrived a little tired and out of it this morning but soon perked up and now
crashed after lots of play. See the first photos at
She is
absolutely precious (or should I say a princess)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU GINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi everyone!
Your picking up your pups this
weekend???????? Oh how exciting, I can't wait to see your go home
pics. Love all the names, Annie, Katy, Milka and Gambler ........what a
great group so far.
Is anyone trying the RAW diet? We feed Daisy the
Canine Cavier and she seems to enjoy it.
Loved feeding her her carrots
as a pup, great for the teething.
When does Milka get to go home, she
must be flying, so does she need to wait?
Great idea with the ice cube
trays Peggy, you are clever! Your emails really crack me up.
Good luck
everyone and please keep us all posted on your new beautiful, sweet babies.
Patty.

8/31I agree . . . thank goodness for
the list serve. My name is Ruth Dolezal & you've probably
already seen my husband, John, on the Casino Litter pics. He's the
one that just had his spleen removed & is holding a 'wannbe'
Annie. John won't be back home until late Sunday night, so my
daughter is going with me to pick her up, both taking time off work
& bringing our cameras. Well, I have less than one hour before
we pick up 'Annie". Her name is actually 'Brier Queen of
Hearts'. I can hardly wait . . . I would luv
to take some 'maternity' leave, but I work for the Salem-Keizer School
District Technology Information office & we are getting things ready
for the beginning of school. John is retired & I work about 10
minutes away from the house so I plan on coming home at lunch every day
to make sure she's doing ok, plus she's going to have a lot of 'adopted
moms, dads, grandma & grandpa's, aunts & uncles',
etc. Even though we have a fenced in yard,
some friends came over last night to make sure it was 'puppy proof' and
there were no spots she could sneak out under the fence. It's been
a VERY LONG time since we had a dog, so John & I have a lot to
learn. We really appreciate all the tips that everyone has shared
. . . thanks again & I'll let you know how our first couple of days
go. Ruth : )

Subject: RE: puppy
food Peggy,I'm glad there is
another one of me! I've been in total nest mode too.
Yesterday I put all the toys for Milka in her toy box and got that
ready. I'm also taking pseudo-maternity leave in that I'm
going to do a mix of working at home and slowly adding time away at
work for Milka to get used to it. Thanks for the meatball
idea. I went last night to buy a food processor and was
wondering the same thing because our freezer is the narrow
kind! Thank goodness for this listserv! Only about 24
hours for me :)
Hi all-Re Gina's turkey meatballs - for those
of you like myself who own a side-by-side fridge with a freezer
too narrow for cookie sheets I have a suggestion. I went
to Goodwill and got 6 ice cube trays (actually needed 7), put
the food in those and froze it. Presto - next day I had
"ice cubes" of puppy food. I'm getting so
excited about bringing Katie home! Only problem is I'm so
focused on that I'm having trouble staying in the present and
I'm doing stupid and forgetful things! My co-workers are
getting a kick out of my pre-puppy chatter and nesting.
I'm taking next week off - maternity leave - and if Katie is up
for it I'm taking her into work Thursday for a puppy
shower. This is what happens when forty-something
childless people get a puppy. Yes Gina I've got the water
boiling...Ilene -
thanks for posting pictures - what a cute bunch of
puppies. Hadn't heard from you in a while and was starting
to worry. Patty - I love hearing golden stories. I
just hope you all don't mind my chatter..Peggy
