    WE are all excited with you and can not wait to see your little baby :)

    Do not pick the dog, see which one picks you and take this one ;)

    With 6 of them, one is sure to come to you first - that one will be yours ;)
  • I agree, let the pup pick you.

    We need pic's A.S.A.P
    I'm not that way reclined

    Jewelry? Seriously? Sheldon you are the most shallow, self-centered person I have ever met. Do you really think that another transparently-manipu... OH, IT'S A TIARA! A tiara; I have a tiara! Put it on me! Put it on me! Put it on me! Put it on me! Put it on me! Put it on me! Put it on me!

    Next Wednesday I plan on going viewing only opens on Tuesday but none of the others on the boy list can make it then so they will probably all still be unpicked when I go.

    My plan is to see which one comes over to me or something as I couldn't possibly choose ! I will have a wee look at them as would like one with a black face like their dad but at this age you can never really tell anyways how they will be when they grow - the last litter he sired ? ( is that the word - i dont know) all had black faces and are gorgeous.

    I will get a pic then the countdown begins til the last day of the month !!


    Also puppy harness... do I wait til I get him or what - have no idea what size to get.

    also do you think i should get a small bed to start with or just get a big one anyways as he is going to grow fast.

    I would get a big one,I can't wait for the pics would love a GSD but could not afford to keep one as I was made redundant in February but would love to see pics as he grows.
