He's Here!!!!

We went to Barlycroft Kennels to pick up our puppy. While we intended to get one from Pansy/Trevor that was 8 weeks today, we ended up getting one from a different litter that is a week older. We fell in love with this guy, and are just enamored with him so far!

He had a fabulously easy drive home. He sat in my husband's lap in the backseat and barely moved. Slept and sat quitetly the entire time (2hrs and 45 minutes). We were planning on stopping for a potty break, but he was beign so good we didn't want to disturb him. We figured if he had to go he'd let us know. He made a 3 small wimpers about 45 minutes in for no real reason, but that is all. The second we pulled into our driveway he did spit up just a small amount (so close!), but no motion sickness really.

Since being home he pottied outside once. We have a few stairs up to the house, and tried to do some training on that (maybe too soon). After getting up the first two with a few minutes of coaxing, he was not having it for the second set. So in we went, A little resting on the couch, and then a little exploring/playing, and a big nap.

Video shows a bit of the playing/exploring, and the beginning of the nap.

This is my husband's first dog, and they are both taking to each other very well. I'm so happy right now!!

Thank you so much! he has been so very affectionate. Its actually one of the reason's we chose a male. I don't know why the sex seems to change the personality, but he is such a doll!
