    Hello Cutie Pie!

    That 4th pic, look at that paw! MWAH! And the 3rd one, what a handsome face! Of COURSE he slept well the first night, so much activity, change, maybe a bit of nerves, and lots of play and excitement! LOL

    7 weeks? Way too young to leave mum and litter mates, you will need to go lots of puppy things, like teaching soft mouth. He would have learned that with his doggie family over the next 2 weeks. Yes it is cute when he mouths you, babies of any species love to taste, and bite, the world around them. Make sure you yelp when he does this, though, you need to pick up on this training immediately!

    He will be fine. I've been through it with Rosie (RB Beagle). She was also early as well. Either 6-7 weeks old. Hank was 7 weeks also. He seems to be doing just fine so far. Don't worry. He's in good hands. We've already started training him basic commands & no 'biting'... I've been through a lot of criticism about Ryder lately so I'd rather not deal with it on here please.

    Oh! Also, when we went to pick him up, he immediately went to us. He knew he was going home. He may have picked us, but we already had him all along!
    You're the one sure thing I've found so you better stick around...

    What an adorable pup Ryder is and he's so lucky to have found a home with you. I will look forward to hear more and see pictures as he grows up.

    Welcome to Pet Talk, Ryder!

    Hello darling! He is lucky to have you, and he's absolutely precious!

    I'm a little jealous, I was hoping that I'd be ready for my Bedlington puppy this year, but I had to put it off again...Please keep us posted on Ryder so I can live vicariously through your puppy!

    Yaaaaaay! Hello, Ryder cutie! Welcome to PT!

    (I saw pics on facebook yesterday, but my dose of cuteness totally wore off overnight, so I am delighted to get another dose today!! Gentle *kiss* for sweet Ryder!)
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    Finally!
    Welcome home, Ryder!
    Even at such a young age, he has such soulful eyes. Glad to hear everything is going smoothly, I hope it continues to do so.

    Ahhhhh, just 6 more days until my baby is scheduled to come home. Seems like forever...
