Good idea michelle!!! We'll have to try that. especially with those tiny itty bitty sharp puppy teeth!!! :D
Ok!!! The pet taxi is ready! I cleaned it, put a nice squishy pillow that I made in it, and I put a sock toy in for him incase he needs to chew. That way he won't chew on the gate like curly did. :D I'm soooooo excited 3 DAYS!!!!!!
Instead of a sock toy, you may want to put something tougher in there. I've heard of too many cases of pups wrecking softer toys, swallowing large pieces of them and then needing surgery. Since he's really young it may be ok, but I still wouldn't risk it. :)
:) Trust me this thing is HUGE I paid no money whatsoever for it and it's stronger than any of the other toys we got curly. It's a normal sized sock with 2-5 other socks stuffed in it. I made it myself and there is no way he can rip it open and swollow a sock. It has a Big knot at the top so none of the socks fall out.
Curly can go through 3 soft toys in one day. This one has lasted him three years!!! If it can go through Curly it can go through anything. lol Plus I'll bee in the back seat with the new pug to make sure he's okay. ;) :D :)

This is my new baby!!!
Omg He Is Just Precious!!!!
Thanks!!! I picked him out of the whole litter!!! I love him already!!!!
Man alive- me too!!!! :D
I cannot wait anymore. this week better hurry up!!! lol I remember the first night we got Curly. He ate my homework. lol :D
I can't wait to go get him. Should I sit in the back seat with him in the carrier just to be safe??? Sorry for all the questions. lol
My dad said if Curly didn't get along with the new pup then we would take him back. :( Curly gets along with everyone though so I don't really have any worries. He is in love with our cat so if he loves her he'll love anything, lol not kidding!!!
2 Days Huh?? Lol :d
Yeah, I really hope Curly likes him I want him to stay with us. I mean, look at that little smushy face!!!!! :D
Just remember to let curly know he is top dog. The pup wont know the difference but Curly will. Its hard with a puppy because just care alone makes you give attention to the pup like going outside. Always ask curly if he wants to go. At first he will- later he might say " I will just stay here" or he might decide its fun to go out and play with the pup.. Feed Curly first, give treats to Curly first etc. And if you say no- say the pups name so Curly doesnt think this is " aim" at him.
ok. So, are there any other ways we can show Curly that he is the big boy of the house??? lol
Oh he knows he is the " big boy".. Its the fact you show him by just putting him first. I still give cookies etc in order of "rank". Hottie, Femka, Zubin and Galina- and when Major comes- then him.. I feed in that order too- I brush in that order- if on a leash- I put the leads on - in that order. I like Curly will love the puppy and find him a great playmate. And the first two weeks, you will be home with them to work it out. You have good timing here for sure.
ok thanks. I'm so nervous for some reason. lol
just excited, and want him home. :D
Yes very!!!
Forgive me if you have already told this, but this is a long thread and it is full of "stuff" I chose to skip, but tell us how you plan on presenting him to your mom. I look forward to Friday night or Saturday morning to see how things went on the ride and the reveal. :D
lol Well we're leaving at 9:00 and then once we get home we'll tell my mom that she has a surprise. Then we'll open the pet taxi and the puggy will come out with a big red bow around his neck. :D
Awe, that is so exciting!! I can't wait either!! I love surprises!!! :D
lol I'll tell you EVERYTHING that happens.
ONE MORE DAY- EVERYBODY CONGO.. xx.xxX.. xx.xxX.. lol
ONE DAY!!!!!!! EEEEEEK THATS TOMORROW!!! OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!! :) :D :eek: :) :D :eek:
Breathe... lol.. Try to get some sleep tonight.. And do not tip off your mom..
When we were going to the library today she asked me where me and my dad were going tomorrow!!!!! I just told her it was 2 and 1/2 hours away. :eek: :D
Baby Is Home!!!!
PICTURES PICTURES PICTURES!!!! YOU ARE KILLING ME here... lol :D
congrats! cant wait for pictures
AAAHHH!!!! Where are the pictures?? Bust out that phone and get some pix of this adorable new baby!! LOL :D
I also want to hear how the surprise went.
But you are probably so busy with the new little guy. We understand. We will patiently be waiting for news on how he is doing. And how Curly is doing too. :p
Sorry!!! We have a disposable camera and after this week we MIGHT get them develpoed and I can post them here but it's going to be a pretty busy week.
I love this puppy. He is so gentle, he is the biggest kisser I've ever seen!!! If you kneel down on the floor with him, he'll run up and kiss you soooo much!!! He is adorable.
Curly is doing fine. At first Curly didn't like the puppy and his fur would stand up and he would ignore him and run away. Now he follows him around constantly and if he gets "lost" in the backyard we'll tell Curly to go get him and he'll just herd him back into the house. Curlys acting like the puppy's father.
By the way, the puppy's name is Ollie. It's short for Oliver. :D I came up with it and my parents liked it so Ollie it is.
My mom likes him alot. When she got home we heard her say "OHHHH MY GOSH!!!! Ohhhhhh he's so cute!!! Is he really a pug?!? Ohhh my gosh he's adorable!!!" It was really funny.
The breeder we went to lived on a farm and had at least 30 pugs. They were sooo cute!!! She had geese, peacocks, cows, cats, roosters, hens, chickens, and a REALLY big dog. She has a horse too. The pugs were all well taken care of and happy looking. She had two bins which held at least 10, three-week-old pugs. There were two bins and they both had baby pugs in them. They were the cutest things I had ever seen!!!
When we got home we played with the pug a bit and waited for my mom to come home. When we heard her pull up I ran upstairs and put the carrier on the bed with Ollie inside it so that when she went upstairs to change she would see a little pug in a crate sitting on her bed. It was really cool.
The names we went through before landing on Oliver (Ollie) were:
Otto, Louie, Moe, Larry, William, Gomez, and Oscar. I liked Ollie the best out of all of them. lol he didn't look like a William, Gomez, or Oscar.
Well I think I've written enough!!! lol :D
30 pugs! :eek: She has other puppies from a different litter there too! :eek: Sounds like a puppy mill to me. I am sorry. But that is just way to sad.Quote:

I live on the farm, my family used to breed dogs, we never had anything close to 30 dogs!!! Even if she bred her own dogs, she can still be a puppy mill. I don't even think you know what a puppy mill is. You can't prove the pup is going to be healthy when the parents don't even have a genetic testing done.Quote:

So you know what I don't care what you think of her because I have a really great puppy with a great personality and a love for life because of her. :mad: :mad: :mad:
