I did pick a new puppy yesterday.
The trip started with a 5:30 wake up call. We were on the road at 6:00 (thank heavens for Starbucks). Made it to 100 Mile House just before noon.
Then I got to have a 8 puppy pileup cuddle!! How cool is that!!
I had a cuddle with Wee Girl and the breeder and I talked some more and I knew it was the wrong thing to try and take her. She was sweet and adorable and everything else
Then I met the 2 that I could chose from. Yellow collar or Green collar. Oh how does one choose that???? Unfortunally, my Mom had allready promised dh that she would ensure that I only took one puppy home. Dang, I do have to choose. The breeder and I talked about it, and they seems fairly similar in temperment. I ended up picking Yellow collar or Silver Girl.
She was slightly smaller boned that then other, and lighter in color. She just seems like my girl.
So, puppy picked and paper work out of the way we head out. She is not overly impressed with the car but was not to bad. About 20 minutes into the trip I thought "wow is she antsy" so I mentioned to mom that she might want to pull over. She did (right away) and voli, first pee and poop outside on a leash. What a good good girl.
To make a very long trip short, she did amazing. We stopped about every 2 hours. She ate some food twice. Pooped twice, peed at every stop.
Won over my mom in a matter of the first pee and poo. No accidents in the car, no car sickness and didn't really start whining until we hit a thunder shower.
Got home around 1:30 last night. Bed at 2:30. Cried most of the night. Got desprate and put her kennel on the bed and opened the door, she then slept half in and half out with her nose on my pillow.
DH and I however, no sleep.Started getting antsy again around 6. Have feed, watered, pooped and peed. Played outside for a while.She is now passed out in the play pen. And I am going to try and get some more sleep.
