At what age are our babies NOT puppies?

[Tamara & Giada]

How long can we stay in the group................1 1/2, 2 ? What does everyone think?

[Sue & Willy Babe]

I think we should be able to stay until at least 2 years of age

Good question! I was wondering that too. I know a few breeders joined and I'm here with NO puppies =) KJ started the group for puppies under 1 year, so hopefully she'll chime in with her thoughts (although I believe she has been very busy with family/friend matters--keep her in your thoughts and prayers!).

[Tamara & Giada]

That is too bad about KJ.........I will pray!!

Well, I know that my Bella Daisy at 7 months has not moved out of her puppy stage yet, LOL.

Two years sounds good to me.

I think when you can leave the house and not crate them while you are gone for fear of what they will do to the house while you are gone. 2 sounds about right to me !

2 years sounds good to me :) HI I'm here for a few minutes before rushing off again :) Thanks for you thoughts and prayers, test results on Monday next week should give us some very pertinent needed answers. (hubby has been sick)

Hi, Maybe as some of our puppies get older, they can break off in to other groups or subgroups (?) called something like "Puppies Born in '08" or "Puppies Born in first half of '08", etc... This way owners with dogs around the same age could stay together?

Great Idea!!
