11 more sleeps - and I’m starting to get nervous!

One of these cuties will become our Jura next Saturday….

We’ve been without a dog at our sides for nearly 6 months, after our Izzy left us. Its also been 14 years since we’ve had a puppy snapping at our ankles - I hope I can remember the rules!!

 

How cute are they! What are they? Izzy was a Weimerarer correct? We have had two living near her but they have fenced the property in with these green metal panels you can't see through. I call then the velvet dogs.

 

Yes, @Victoria, Izzy was a Weimaraner. In fact, all three of our dogs have been - Longhaired Weimaraners.

We are totally smitten on the breed, so this is a litter of LHs - and we get to go to see them tomorrow afternoon…

 

Back from our first encounter with the puppies - 9 bundles of puppy-cuteness!!





…why do I get the feeling that trouble is arriving next week?!!

 

How precious! Is he tagged that you know who he is? They are all identical.

 

They're adorable, what are you going to call him ?

 

They all have different coloured collars on, and are also microchipped

 

He’s going to be “Jura” - or “no!”, “Owww!”, “stop it!”

 

Do people always call their dog by the original name they were given, any dog I had always ended up being called all different versions of the name.
Only got call by the original name when at the vets.

 

My neighbour across the street nas a black lab. A lovely dog and he is now getting old. I'll never forget the first time I was chatting with them and this extremely well trained dog came up beside me. Not knowing the dog's name, I just said "Hello Blue" because he struck me as a "Blue". I gave him some pats and carried on chatting. The husband and wife did not say a word for a few seconds and stared at me. Apparently the dog now named Levi, was originally named blue, by the breeder.

 

Ours always had the same name.
