Patty,
She
plays for a little while and then sleeps. She actually just now went into
her crate on her own and plopped down to sleep!!!! I think the medication
which I finally got her to take at noon our time wiped her out. Plus, the entire
trip from Oregon to DC. She is so wonderful!!!!! :)
Karin
Karin, I think your right she is a princess.
Did she sleep ok? She is a doll........congrats!!!!!!
Patty.

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
