We picked her up on Sunday morning at 11:30am. I was so excited/nervous on the drive out to get her. I'll admit I felt very guilty taking her away from her mom and litter mates, but I guess that's just a part of life.
She took the car ride home like a champ. I'm soooo glad she does well in a car. Our dog Cookie would throw up every time she had to ride in a car. Phew! Glad we won't have to relive that!
I have a gajillion pictures I want to share with you guys, so I'll try to be brief. I'll be honest I don't really know what is normal for a new puppy, but on the whole I think she's doing pretty well. She seems to be picking up on her name. She has definitely accepted Andy and I as her new pack. And she seems pretty smart in terms of learning the stairs and walking on a leash. She's not eating very much, but I imagine that will change as she gets more comfortable. She also WAILS when she is first put in her crate. Andy is not exactly enforcing the crate rules, so I'm sure that plays into it. She already has him wrapped around her little paw. :-)
Ok picture time!!
So there she is! Our little Birdie Gurl. :-)
Hooray you have your Birdie!!! She is so precious! Congrats on the new pup and hoping you're having a wonderful time with her! :)
