Congratulations, Staci!
I'm so happy for you. It looks like you got everything for the Puppy except a Name. Have you decided on a Name? What does Kylie think about her new Sister?

[Dixieland Dancer]

How did she like her Bath? Probably not as much as you liked giving her one? Does she look like and Aspen or an Autumn? How is the puppy breath? How old is she?

I know lots of questions but we have been waiting as long as you to "GET" her! Can't wait for pictures. Congratulations!

AWW Staci I AM so happy for you!! Good luck trying to get yourself to work tomorrow I have a million questions as well but I'm sure you'll give us an update as soon as you can pry your hands off that big puppy belly.

I am so glad I get to take my foster pupster to work with me

She is 6 weeks,I thought they were going to wait until they were 8 weeks old, but I guess not
But I was sooooo excited I couldn't wait
I know Candy, you told me to wait until they were 8 weeks, but I couldn't was too happy and excited
Kylie doesn't quite know what to think~!
She is watching from her perch on the couch!

Actually I am thinking of Aspen or Keegan!!

Oh, I just can't believe it, Staci!!!! Congratulations!!! I had just finished typing a note on Alicia's post about the PBS program, saying that I hoped you watched it!!! So much wonderful puppy advice, and puppies everywhere!!!

How exciting this is for you!!! Helen and I were talking about you again today, and Shaianne, and the new puppy.

[Karen]

Oh, do tell us her name, when you and she decide. How's Kylie doing?

[zippy-kat]

YaY! Puppy time!!

[mugsy]

Congrats on the new family member!! Pictures!!!!!!!

[Pam]

Staci what fun you are going to have with a puppy in the house!! How wonderful that she is already with you now! I remember Bella's first night. She cried all night but that was because I didn't have the crate in my bedroom. The breeder had mentioned that in a little packet of info that she gave me and I never read it under after that first night and also my fellow Pet Talkers said "put the crate in the bedroom!" Hope little "no name" has a good night tonight. You, on the other hand, will probably be up all night from sheer excitement!!

I'm so very happy for you!!! How does it
feel being a 'brand new Mom' to such a little
bundle of love & sweetness?
I think Mom should take a day off from work
to celebrate,love and comfort this sweet
little baby girl...Pictures can wait a bit,
just give the little one a hug & kiss from all her "aunties & uncles".

Staci, 6 weeks is not as bad as 4 or 5 weeks, but you still may come up with problems in the future. From 3 to 7 weeks puppies learn canine socialization and pack order. This is really crucial if you want your dog to get along with other dogs. Puppies weaned at 6 weeks may have the socialization skills but not the confidence. I would just watch her for any major personality traits and socialize her a lot while she is in her young months.

I found this website.. and its a Golden Retriever site too.. but it explains puppy development.
